A New York State of Mind

Last weekend, I took a huge leap and left Stafford (with his very capable daddy) for 3 nights and journeyed to NYC to visit my good friend, Caroline. Since it was MLK weekend and I had that Monday off from work, I decided that was the perfect time for a trip up North. We had SUCH a great time!! Our Saturday consisted of sleeping in, walking around Central Park (in the snow flurries!), visiting the Guggenheim Museum, having drinks at The Mark Hotel, shopping at Saks, dinner at Pipa and "clubbing" at the Gramercy Park Hotel - Rose Bar. Our Sunday consisted of brunch at Barbounia (their french toast was amazing!), shopping at Eataly, walking around Union Square, sipping milkshakes from The Shake Shack, napping, ordering in for dinner and watching the Giants WIN their game. Monday, I was up bright and early to catch my flight back to Jackson and hug on my boys. I missed them SO MUCH but had a blast with Caro...she was a great hostess! Thank you Caroline for inviting me up...much needed girl time and so fun!!
