On August 10th-15th Me, Alli, and my Mom and Dad flew to New York!!! :) We've always wanted to go and when we found out that we were really going we were WAY EXCITED!!! It was definitely the best vacation I have ever been on by far!! :) We went to a Yankees Game, saw the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Chinatown, World Trade Center, Mamma Mia and Phantom of the Opera plays, Timesquare, went to the Today Show and saw "Zac Brown Band" perform, went on a NBC Studio Tour and saw the stage where they film "Saturday Night Live," went to Central Park, and even rode the subway to New Jersey to go to Carlo's Bake Shop to see where they film the T.V. show "Cake Boss!" We loved every second of it and wish we could have stayed longer!! :)
Woke up at 3AM to go to the airport.. :) Running on 3 hrs of sleep.. :) 
Reading magazines and waiting for the plane! 
Just hours before the best 5 days of our life! :)
FINALLY THERE!!!! :D
Right when we stepped off the plane there was soooo many people!!!
I knew then that we were really in NEW YORK!! :)
Our taxi man was quite the jokester.. he was hilarious! :) he told us that he gave Karl Malone's daughter a ride in his taxi one time, we thought that was pretty sweet!! 
Mom and Alli already to go :)
Us at Radio City!! Justin Bieber always goes there:) :)
Mom and Dad in front of Radio City!
Hahaha okay so I saw this Statue of Liberty man and I told my mom that I wanted a picture with him. I go over there to stand by him and take a pic and he starts dressing me up and posing me!!! Now you gotta remember that this is in New York where there are billions of people..everyone was staring at me!!! But it was so funny :) 
Downtown Timesquare :) 
We saw "Mamma Mia" that night.. it was wayy good!!

Policemen on horses.. now that was a sight! 
Loved the Phantom of the Opera show! Especially when the chandellier dropped!
The next morning my Dad and I woke up at 4am to go to the Today Show. 
It was packed!! Zac Brown Band performed and it was great :)

Rockefeller Center.. where all the concerts on tv are :) to bad we weren't there the next week cuz Enrique Iglesias was performing :) 
We walked around some shops by where they film Jimmy Fallon. 
Our sweet microphones we got at the Today show :)
Then we went on a NBC Studio Tour and got to see the stage where they film Saturday Night Live!! I thought that was soooo COOL!! Like every famous person has been right there.. including JB aww :) :) 
Alli and I had our eyes on a couple cute boys that were in our tour group :) 
I remebered Justin Bieber peforming at the Nintendo Store downtown.. so of course we had to go and get pics in the EXACT same spot as he did! We were rubbing our hand on the pole where he's touched haha (in the pic above) and the worker was staring at us like freaks.. but who cares.. JB was there!! 
Another pic in the same spot as JB :) :) Our next stop was the Empire State Building.. 
One of my favorites from the trip :) :) it was soo neat!
Our fam at the top of the Empire State Building.. the ride up in the elevator hurt our ears like when your in a plane and your ears get plugged cuz your up so high!
