This year Ben had a couple of days of training in New York and I got to go along! Audra watched the kids for us, giving her a grand total of 6 kids! I don't know what I'd do without my sweet sister. We stayed in the Marriott Marquis in Times Square and had a great little getaway. We got to New York late Sunday night and Ben was in training until 5 pm on Monday and Tuesday. We had Wednesday morning and early afternoon in the city and then flew out that night. During the day on Monday and Tuesday, I took the double decker tourist bus around the city and really enjoyed it. I got to see some things that I'd never seen before and it was interesting to hear the tour guide commentary. We got to see a couple of shows and walk around to see all of the amazing Christmas decorations. It was a great getaway and we were excited to get home to our babes.

| Turns out this is the only picture of me in New York. I was trying to get my camera out to take a picture on the bus. |

| We saw Newsies the first night we were there. It was fun but were bummed that the understudy was in for Jack. |

I watched them film the Today show for a little while. Right after I took this, Hoda stood up and waved at us but I couldn't get a good picture.
