The start of spring break and a bridesmaid's weekend

We are back from Switzerland and I am busy organizing videos and photos from our trip. I will be posting a Switzerland entry soon, but Spring Break started with another wonderful trip to NYC/NJ with my best friends in the whole world...


Annie, Kate, and I at the Hoboken, NJ St. Patrick's Day parade.

As soon as WFS's Spring Break started, I took a train with my best friend Kate to visit our other best friend Annie in the Big Apple. On a quest for bridesmaid's dresses for Annie's upcoming wedding, we had several appointments at various bridal salons and it didn't take us too long to find the perfect dresses. After dress shopping it was off to Hoboken for the St. Patrick's celebration of the century. Seriously, these folks don't mess around. We saw a parade and met lots of Neil's friends. Anytime the three of us are all together we have a ridiculously fun time! We are so excited about Annie and Neil's wedding this July!


When I got home from NYC, it was great to see Raph and Sophia. This was only the second time I had ever left Sophia and the first time I left her for more than one night. She, of course, was fine, after all, Daddy, Grammy, and Pop had taken good care of her all weekend. When I saw her though I couldn't believe how much she had grown in only two days. A true reminder of how much little ones grow and change everyday.
