Happy Birthday in NYC!

One of my dearest friends celebrated her 40th birthday this month and to celebrate her life, we took a trip to NYC!  We had so much fun.  It snowed one of the nights we were there and everything was just so Christmasie despite the fact that EVERYONE wished us a "happy holiday" instead of a "Merry Christmas".  Very politically correct in the upstate!  Of course, EVERY New Yorker had to ask where I was from to which I replied in my best southern drawl... "Why Manhattan of course, Why would you ask"?  Here are some pictures from our trip....

We also went to see WICKED  and PHANTOM OF THE OPERA - Both were excellent and I would recommend them to anyone visiting NYC!
