It has been a perfect time for a trip. I turned 40, Johnnye had a birthday on the trip, Tashia had a birthday on the 24th, and since Don just had his on July 31st (but if you remember that is the day his mom unexpectedly and abruptly died on his birthday, back when Jake was sick), so we are choosing him a new birthday! It may as well fall on this trip too! (Until next year we are somewhere in June or September or January and need an excuse for someone's birthday, and then we may change it!)
So, here I am Birthday person #2. I am diggin' New York! Like the new hat? Hmmm? And that cute bag? Sommmmmeeeeoooone will be getting one like it for Christmas! Or maybe three of you!
So, yesterday, let's just hit a few highlights. As you realize, we are at Times Square, so there is Broadway everywhere. Breathe, Kathryn, just breathe!!
SO, as a tribute to Lion King..."Can you feeeeel the loooove tonight?!" 
Later that same day.
And this is our whole gang. I make them stop and pose before we go out each evening. The boys just LOOoovvve that! They sure do like to take pictures. Have you noticed that about your husband and his friends? It's just "Hey mel, take one of me by this post." or "Hey mel, here I am sipping my coffee. " Just kidding. They hate it. Or as Todd says, he'd rather have toothpicks shoved into his eyeballs.
Ok, so you may have heard of the Naked Cowboy?! Well, this is the Naked Cowgirl. Classy chick! Notice her finger. Maybe she is just helping us with directions?!
Ahhhh... here he is! He is legendary!
And here we are with the birthday boy, himself.
We are having a blast. And how absolutely blessed to share such a fun time with some of our closest friends! I am already planning a return trip. We may have to eat Raman (?) noodles for a while until the bank account recovers! But, for now. ... it is all good! MO
