boston&new york

my sister melanie lives in boston and i’ve been wanting to go visit her so bad, but just didn’t think it was going to ever happen. well, we made it happen finally! my little sibs and i took a trip to see her last week. we had such a blast! we are all so close so we had fun teasing each other, laughing over inside jokes, sleepovers in mel’s tiny {but adorable} room, and just spending quality sib time together :)

on thursday morning we drove to new york and spent thursday night in the bronx and then spent all friday in nyc and headed back to boston late friday night. we were all a little nervous to be sleeping in the bronz and had no idea what our hotel would be like. it ended up being super nice! we wanted to stay there longer!

new york consisted of a picnic in central park, the american museum of natural history, the shake shack for dinner, yummy cupcakes for dessert, nyc temple, times square, forever 21, h&m, statue of liberty {3 hour line just to get on the ferry!}, ellis island, wall street, ground zero, starbucks hot chocolate, chinatown, mcdonalds ice cream, and lots of subway rides!
