Everywhere you look, the "House Rules"/subway art is being created and recreated. I love the idea. So, I came up with my own list for our family and plan to have it done on canvas. Fun!!!

NYC Day 3
Day 3 started a little later with a great breakfast at a diner. Then we headed to our show at Radio City Music Hall to see Madagascar Live! It was a rainy walk through the streets, but we still had a great time. This little family of four can find fun just about anywhere and any time!! We stopped by the M&M store and the Lego shop. We took a taxi to SoHo for dinner at Lombardi's and then dessert at Pinkberry yogurt shop. I was also on a bit of a mission to find Kelly Ripa's apartment. And strangely, our dinner restaurant was just blocks from where she lives. So, I took a few photos of her place, but found out later that she was vacationing in DC while we were in the Big Apple looking for her!! After our SoHo adventure we headed back uptown via the subway to Grand Central Station. Then it was time to get a piece of cheesecake for a late night snack.

NYC Day 2 Part 2
It's still Day 2 and now we are heading into Central Park. First we took a carriage around the park and then we went for a stroll. The girls and I rode on the carousel in the park and John and Shelly took a climb up some of the rocks in the playground area. Amazing that this huge and beautiful park sits right in the middle of this city! We wandered the streets of NYC, had lunch, went to Dylan's Candy Store, went inside St. Patrick's Cathedral on Good Friday, boarded the subway for a ride south, went to the Battery, saw the Statue of Liberty, and played in a beautiful playground near Ground Zero.
