Starting Spreading the News...







Mom and Vance turned 50 last year and we decided to take a much needed family trip. We decided to go see U2 in New York and stay a couple of days and enjoy the city. Long story short, U2 cancelled the show and we ended up having a blast anyway. The UN was in town that week, so it was crazy to get around with streets blocked and 1,000s of police. It was kinda of fun to be at the same place as all of the important leaders. Obama stayed at the hotel accross the street from us. Mom's favorite movie is Mary Poppins, and we were lucky enough to get 8th row tickets at the last minute. She was like a kid in the candy store, esp when Mary actually flew with her umbrella over the audience. One of the neatest things was going through the 9/11 church. It is still so hard to believe that it happened and how more people didn't die. We learned a lot about New York and its history, that we needed a GPS to navigate through the subway, that you must bring cash to Carnige Deli(the hard way of course), but most of all we learned that we should take more vacations. It does a body and a family good.
