New York City

Here are pictures of our trip to New York. Pictures of Baltimore and DC are coming soon.

This is the real Matt Lauer with some random woman who asked to take her picture with him. We also got to see Meredith Vieira and Al Roker during the taping of the TODAY Show on September 11th.

Josh ate too many hot dogs

The MTV Video Music Awards were at Radio City September 13th while we were in New York. Everyone was lined up outside trying to see famous people. We saw a guy with spiked hair go in and everyone started screaming, but Josh and I couldn't figure out who it was.

The Late Show...we tried to go to the Hello Deli, but it was closed.

Central Park was beautiful

Allie was dancing on the table. Funny at 11 months, but will not be funny in 15 years.

We got free stocking caps for coming to the game

They had cute M&M onesies...I didn't want to spend the money to buy one so I took a picture.

Allie in Times Square. She was distracted by the "dog" on the other side of the street. Actually it was a horse and carriage, but to her every animal is a dog.
