This is the last one!

Tuesday night we saw Wicked. Love that show! The kids love that show!
 Then, we stopped by Juniors for dessert.....can you say scrumptious!!!?!?!??
 Love Brandon's eyes....he had that whole thing!
 Yum yum!
 Some pretty bridges in Central Park...
 Wednesday morning came and it was pouring rain!  We had planned to go see the Statue of Liberty this morning before we headed for the airport.  We debated, but in the end, decided we needed to show the kids the Statue up close.  So, we bought some cheap umbrellas....had everyone wear their jackets...we didn't bring coats...and headed out!

 We weren't the only crazies....but Mike and I thought the kids will for sure remember this visit!

 Quick picture....I think they were surprised at how tall she is.....Then, we headed back to the ferry to take us back...
 Amazingly enough, we had a subway car almost to ourselves...one lady. So, Sydney and Brandon decided to swing a bit.  It lasted one stop until there were more people boarding the train, but it was fun!

 We were starving and cold, so we went back to Juniors for lunch before heading to the airport.  Amanda had to try the hot dog after hearing from Maddy that she loved it! This thing was huge!  But, it hit the spot, she ate almost all of it.
We went to the airport via shuttle.  When we went through security, Brandon had to lose his snow globe.  I guess you can't take them with you. The security guard said we could check our bag or they have to throw out the globe. Well, we needed the bag, so we gave them the snow globe. Brandon was in tears!!!  But, lo and behold, once you get through security, you can buy a new one in the airport shops.  Crazy.  Amanda bought some new pj pants because her jeans were soaking wet and changed before the flight.  We bought the kids all fuzzy socks so that they could take off their soaking wet tennis shoes.  It was quite the experience :)
We LOVED this trip! Thank you to Grandpa and Grandma for taking our whole family! It is a trip that we will think about often and remember forever.  Thanks to Mikey for making it a fun time for our little family. Loves!
