All Star Champs

This past weekend was the end of All Star season tournament. Nanis came on Saturday to cheer Nate on
Kaelyn and Addison
Nate and Lucas...buds

After the first game, we went to Mighty Fine Burgers for lunch. YUMMY!!

Mom gave Addison her little gift she bought her in NY. It's a little girl bunny necklace. Soooo cute!!!

I couldn't resist taking a pic of Ty's precious little shoes. His feet are getting so big!

The hat is almost too small. He's got a big head. HEHE!

Snow Cones!!!!

After the Red Devils won both games, we headed home. First, Addi had to play for a few minutes.

We had a babysitter keep Addison and Ty on Sunday so I could actually watch the game without chasing them.

Getting ready to play on Sunday. Nate up to bat!

I love his little hiney!

We won both games on Sunday too!

Headed Home

Our flight was scheduled to leave Lagourdia Airport on Wednesday at 11:30, have a layover in Baltimore and then arrive in Austin around 5:30. Yeah, didn't happen. All because of some bad weather, we were either in an airport or on a plane for 17 hours. UGH!!! So, 3 plane rides later, we finally made it home at 2:30 a.m.

Check out these planes lining up to fly out of Lagourdia Airport. I think there were a total of 11. Manhattan from the sky

Sandi is pooped after a long day!!!

I'm pretty tired too!!

Mom trying to catch a little snooze.

FUNNY!!

I'm pretty sure that I'm happy in the above picture because I've EATEN a zillion cinnamon sticks! What better to do than to eat when you are bored and stranded!

Aunt Tracey chatting with our new friend that was also trying to get home.

Still sleepy!!!

Because our flight from NY to Baltimore was 4 hours late, the plane in Baltimore left us. SAD!! Therefore, we were standby on the next flight out to Nashville. NO JOKE when I say that we were the last 4 peeps on the flight. When we got to Nashville, we thought we'd easily get on the flight to Austin; NOPE!!! Because of all the delays, everyone wanted on that flight. I was stressing out!! God was soooo with us, once again, we luckily made it on board and I was the very last person to get on that plane again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a happy person!!

Notice I'm holding a pillow and blanket? I bought them because I thought we were going to have to stay the night in the airport. I was sooo nervous!

This is what the Nashville airport looked like when we were boarding. It's 12:30 a.m. and we are ready to get home!!!

We arrived home at 2:30 a.m. and Rob had to leave for the airport at 4:30 a.m. Thankfully I got home just in time for him to get back to work.

New York Part 4

We stayed at the Broadway Millinium on Time Square. GREAT location! We could see the New Years Ball and GMA from our hotel room.

We went to see Wicked and it was WICKED!!!!!! I could see that show over and over again. Absolutely LOVED it!!!!!!! I didn't get any pics from the auditorium because cameras are not allowed. WICKED is a MUST when you visit NY!!!

Before the show

I'm the bad witch and Sandi is the good. HEHE!!!

We did the 3 hour boat tour that cruised all around Manhattan Island. http://www.circleline42.com/

This too is a must!!!!! We got to see parts of NY on the cruise that were beautiful! Only $35 for the 3 hours.

This is overlooking New Jersey and the Hudson! Gorgeous!!

New Jersey and Hudson River

Row House

Yankee Stadium... this is the best pic I could get

We had dinner on this pier... yummy and way cool!

Past this bridge is the Atlantic Ocean

Ellis Island

Can you see the cranes in the picture??? That's Ground Zero. The two open spaces are where the two towers stood.

That's a golf range on a pier. CRAZY right! The Titanic survivors arrived at the dock that is now the golf range.

New Jersey

Sully flew his plane right over that bridge and landed right where we were on the Hudson. That was a pretty cool feeling.

Intrepid Battle Ship used in WWII

Intrepid from the dock

NY had quite a few dog parks. This was one of them. This dog was sunbathing and the owner was sitting on a bench reading a book. There were dogs everyone in NY. Even in Bloomingdales and other stores.

What a great trip we had. Definitley my favorite of all time. Absolutely amazing!!!! I soooo didn't want to come home. I thought my wish was going to come true...... in a bad way though!!! To be contined......
