So I mentioned earlier in the summer that all of our travels were coming late this year. They were all phenomenal trips. Our trip to NYC at the end of July was one of my favorites to date. John was there on business, so I joined him after his meeting for a few days.
Eating an early dinner at one of our very favorite restaurants there - Pigalle. The French onion soup is the best on the planet.
We met up with John's sister and saw "A Little Night Music" with Bernadette Peters and Elaine Stritch. Can you believe Bernadette still looks that good?!?!?!?
Times Square - on the way to see a matinee of "Memphis"
Plays Delray in "Memphis"
Plays Huey in "Memphis"
This was John's 3rd time and my 2nd to see "Memphis" - truly a wonderful show. The music brings me to tears every single time I hear it. We are so excited for the national tour to kick off in Memphis next year. You can bet we will be at the Orpheum more than once while it is here!
We did get to see "Promises Promises", but the stage door was a MOB SCENE afterwards. We expected that to be the case because Sean Hayes and Kristin Chenowith are both starring in it. The show was phenomenal and hysterical. So sad to find out that it is closing in January.
John and I spent an afternoon aboard the USS Intrepid, which has been turned into a museum. It was an amazing experience. We definitely want to take the girls aboard when we go back to NYC in November.
There were so many things to see. There was no way we could cover it all in our four short hours there. Like I said, our trip was wonderful. I so enjoyed spending that time with John. It was awesome to see Laura a couple of days that we were there. The city is so special to us because John proposed to me there. I am just thankful to God for blessing us with the means and the ability to enjoy that time together.
"But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let those also who love Your name be joyful in You." - Psalm 5:11
