We packed a lot of fun into our quick weekend trip to NYC, but not a lot of pictures were taken. For one it was freezing outside. I remember more than once thinking that something would make a nice shot (and in NYC there are lots of moments like that), but I literally couldn’t make myself take my hand out of my pockets to take the image. Also, my daughter got sick immediately upon arriving and is still recovering from her fever. Alas, I only have a few NYC shots to share.

Can’t you tell how excited I was to take photos as we are approaching NYC–I was getting all artistic.

Jason’s mom was with us on this visit. Thanks for all the babysitting Cathy!

And we did make a quick visit to the Natural History Museum right after we arrived.

Can you tell the sick bug was arriving for my oldest in the corner?

Yumm–hot dogs. This was taken with my point and shoot camera–I had given up on my big one.

I did try to go to the International Center for Photography Museum, but it was closed while it was getting ready for a new show. Bummer. So, it was a drama weekend instead. I saw my first Met Opera and it was incredible. Check out the glowing review of it HERE. I also took the kids to their first Broadway show Mary Poppins (my first Broadway show as well), and got last minute half price tickets to Chicago (didn’t take the kids to this one)!. So, while I am disappointed that I didn’t tough it out for some cool NYC snow pics, it wasn’t all a waste.
