Our NYC Weekend

To celebrate my 27th b-day (good night, I am old...), Matt took me to NYC for a night. We shopped, walked around, and went to see the amazing musical "Wicked". I saw it about 4 years ago on a family girls trip, and have loved it every since then.

It's so great.

I cry.

Every time I see it.

Our pic with Ozzy in Times Square... the New Year's ball is on display there and it's teeny tiny.


This one is just for Tommy.

Me showing off our view. We got upgraded to a corner room and were so excited until we realized that the second window looked directly into an office building. Gotta love NYC...

Matt - he's so great :)

The view from our room at the Palace. We could see down Radio City Music Hall, St. Patrick's Cathedral, The Late Show, the Rock, Times Square, and the water. Not bad.

Party Time!

To celebrate Hula's 3rd birthday, we surprised her with a doggy cupcake after dinner last night. She was super excited!!

Checking it out in her bowl... she's trying to figure out how to eat it as quickly as possible.

When Hula really likes something (like a Denta-Stick or cupcake), she'll take it out of her bowl and run to hide with it in another room. Does she think we're going to take it from her?? She usually hides behind the kitchen table, but she was so excited to eat the cupcake, she stopped in the middle of the living room and gobbled it frantically.

Hula also received a growling banana, now called "Nanners".

Happy Birthday, Hula!!

Today is Hula's 3rd Birthday!! We will be celebrating with a special, doggy cup-cake after dinner tonight. In honor of the birthday girl, we wanted to share a video of her and her new friend, Hedgie. When Amy was visiting Lara and Sam last week in London, they gave her a cute, little Hedgehog stuffed animal. When Amy unpacked it, Hula claimed it for her own!! Hula treats Hedgie like her other favorite toys, Duckers and Giraffers. She picks them up, shakes them, and then chews.

Thanks for the hospitality and for Hedgie, Lara and Sam!! And to our sweet Hula, Happy Birthday!!
