For Chris's birthday, I planned a surprise trip to New York City! It started a few months ahead of time when I was brainstorming ideas with his mom, Kim. We decided not only would I surprise him with the trip to NYC, but they would join us and meet us there. Kim and I had an absolute blast planning the trip...we did so much research! Kim picked our hotel after lots of research and it was super nice...however, when we called and asked how far they were from the subway, they said 6 blocks. Okay, not bad at all. Except they failed to mention it was 6 blocks down and another 6 blocks over! It was super hot, but we still had a fantastic time. I think Kim and I had the most fun trying to figure out the subway. We had purchased the New York City Pass and we got to do so many cool things with it. Radio City Music Hall, NBC Studios, Empire State Building, Top of the Rock, 9-11 Memorial, The Bodies Exhibit, Chinatown, Little Italy, an acrobatic show, Coney Island, Times Square, and Central Park are just some of the awesome things we got to do while we were there. I am so glad we were able to do it and surprise Chris!
A yummy brewery we ate at the very first day
9-11 Memorial - it was so surreal
Chris was so happy to come by here - Seinfeld Restaurant

The worst rollercoaster ever - it almost killed us

Relaxing at Central Park
We had such an amazing time and are so glad we got to spend time with his parents while there! It was a great trip and I can't wait for our next vacation!
