In March we got to go to New York City with Janet and Sarah and Lucy and Nora. Unfortunately Sarah and Audrey and Ashley and Annie couldn't come, which would've made it a complete Nelson girls trip, but I'm so glad we went with the rest of us. We have talked about going with Janet for years. She loves New York City and I really wanted to go there with her and my girls. We packed a lot into a few days! We saw the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, ate Chinese food in China Town, and went to the Glossier store. That was the highlight of the trip for Lia, Laura, and Megan. They were so excited to go and so excited to share their love of Glossier products with their grandma! We saw the first of two plays that night. I took my girls to see Hadestown and Janet and Sarah and her girls went to one they wanted to see. We ended the night with some late night empanadas. The next day we went to the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. I had been there before and really wanted my girls to see it. It is a very sad, but incredible place and definitely worth going to. We also went to Rockefeller Center, did some shopping at Kate Spade, and saw our second play, A Beautiful Noise. We loved it! It's about Neil Diamond who's music I grew up listening to. Some of the songs hit a little too close to home for me, but I loved it still. The next day we rode bikes through Central Park and had lunch at Tavern on the Green. It was dreamy! We also went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, saw some churches, ate at Ellen's Stardust Diner, braved the cold (and lots of rain the day before), and finished the trip at Serendipity for some frozen hot chocolate. It was such a great trip! To be able to go with my girls and their grandma, aunt, and cousins was amazing!
