Wicked New York!

Justin gave me the most amazing birthday present ~ Tickets to Wicked on Broadway! ! ! ! He also bought me a divine Cheescake Factory cheesecake, which our entire family enjoyed.
I've been trying to see Wicked for years and years, and my past attempts always fell through. Then my knight in shining armor came into my life and made it happen. It was a perfect trip with a perfect man.
Some friends from church came over and stayed with Mason all day, THANK YOU!!! He was great without us, as long as he has his food, toys, and someone to laugh with, he's good!
We took a shuttle flight to LGA and had a few hours to see some sights. We grabbed some pizza at a place called Bravo Pizza near the public library (which was under construction, so we didn't get a good look at that way cool building), and the pizza was amazing! How do they make the crust so delectable?! Justin was still hungry, so he picked up a hot dog (ick) from a street vendor, and we hung out at the Rockefeller Center until we needed to go to Gershwin Theatre. I love the city! The people were actually really really nice! I'd always heard otherwise, but we had a great experience with everyone we talked with. The weather was ideal. All our transportation ran on time without a glitch. We even hopped on an earlier flight to give us a little more sightseeing time.
We watched the matinee of Wicked, which was everything and more than I'd hoped. Justin even loved it. We both had tears in our eyes at intermission.
After the show we headed over to JFK airport and came home! A long but thoroughly satisfying adventure! Happy Birthday to me! We are so excited to go back for a longer stay. Anyone want to join us?
