New York Bound

Clay & I leave for NYC in a little more than a week. I am now officially accepting suggestions for tours and attractions. I am already aware of when/where/how to find show tickets, but I am in need of suggestions for other things to do. I am so unfamiliar with the city I haven't a clue where to start.

Very, very excited!!

I am loving...

...summertime! I am so thankful for a break from school and time to hang out with the family I am nannying for! We saw UP in 3D today...very cute and I wanted to cry.  Staying out of the sun today since the boys and I both got some burnage yesterday.  Tomorrow I start housesitting for a week...God has been so good to me this summer with the opportunities for extra income.  I will be able to pay cash for all of my NYC trip, and also get ahead on my loan repayments.  YAY!
