New York, New York


We met the Sprague Parents in New York City! It was Richard's 50th Birthday Trip and they really spoiled us. Get ready for some pictures.

Our first Subway trip



The Parents



Lady Liberty in the distance



We planned on seeing some crazy things in New York, but we weren't expecting this. There was a wild turkey in the middle of Battery Park. So weird!



Downtown wrapped in Fog



On the ferry to the Statue of Liberty



There she is. The history here is overwhelming.







Wall Street. I don't think she realizes where she's standing.



The view from our hotel room.



We ate dinner at Sardi's. This is a celebrity frequented restaurant right next to Broadway and Times Square. The food was amazing.



Times Square



For Taylor's first Broadway, we went to see Chicago.



DJ Shooter, a close friend of the Sprague Family, is a senior at Yale University. He is also a stud football player there. We took a train from Grand Central Station to New Haven, CT to go visit him.







The Yale Bulldogs remained undeafeted in there division as they beat the Penn Quakers 17-14 in Overtime. DJ is #80.



Taylor and DJ



Chad and Hailey flew into New Haven to spend the weekend with DJ. It was a mini family reunion!





One last train trip, a limo ride, and a plane flight brought us back home. I can't believe how much we did in two short days. It was just enough to make us want to go back. We had such a great time and we are so grateful that we have parents that let us join in their fun. Thanks Mom and Dad Sprague.

Okay, I just rewatched the movie "Hitch" and so the picture of the bull on Wallstreet was especially funny. Maybe the girl remember that part from "Hitch" also and wanted a similiar picture.
