New York CityGirls Trip!!

Last year at a basketball game some of us Wescott woman talked about doing a girls trip NYC and didn't get our act together to pull it off. So this President's Day weekend we did and had a blast! We arrived late Friday night and stay in New Jersey across from the Met Life Stadium. It was a 15 minute bus ride into the city!

Started Saturday in line to get tickets to a show! 

Lunch at Bowlmor!

After the show, we ended up meeting one of the actresses!





Cyn & I enjoying a beverage together :)

After dinner we headed towards Time Square and the snow made for some pretty sights!

Getting a little love from Mario & Elmo!

Laurie & I on the bus headed to the city for day 2!

We started the day going to the 9/11 memorial. What a beautiful, moving tribute. 

Freedom Tower

After seeing the memorial we headed back uptown to enjoy lunch at Carmines!

Lunch was amazing and it such a fun weekend with these ladies!! Can't wait to do it again :)

 



Menu Plan Monday

After a long weekend spent with my Dad at Maine Med, menu planning was the last thing on my mind last night. When I stopped at the grocery store last night on my way home I grabbed at rotisserie chicken, best decision. It was super easy to heat up in the oven and eat before I headed back into the hospital tonight. I am keeping it super easy this week.

Monday: Rotisserie  Chicken
Tuesday: Clean out the freezer
Wednesday: Vodka Penne
Thursday: Chicken Fajita Quesadillas
Friday:  Take out :)

Book Pile

I was picking up a few things at Sam's Club so as I strolled down the book aisle, I picked out all these titles for my book pile! I always love reading about the Kennedy's, and I always enjoy reading Mary Kay Andrews and Anna Quidlen. Just requested most from the library. I found the last one on my list when I went to find Just Like Other Daughters(the only book I can't get from the library system) on Amazon. Look like an interesting read so I added to my pile!

Three weeks ago, on a beautiful snowy Sunday, we went ice fishing and had an awesome morning!  

The group! The 4 of us plus Grammy, Grampy & Poppi!

The scenery was just beautiful and we were the only ones on the pond!

 Setting up traps! I even used the auger to drill a couple holes!

 

We hadn't even finished setting all the traps before we got a fish!

Pulling up the line!

Jack had fun being pulled in the sled!
