Trip to NYC

We had a wonderful time in New York visiting our friends and family. Henry was such a trooper on the plane and barely made a peep. He adjusted well to the time change and slept really well each night. He was in good spirits for the majority of the trip despite being a bit under the weather (both Brad and Henry weren't feeling 100%).

While in New York, Henry met his Great Great uncle Ted and aunt Goldie (yes, that's two Greats!), Great Great Aunt Grace and cousins Donna & Chris along with their daughter Laura. Henry also met our friend Michelle for the first time too! Thank you, thank you, thank you to Ted & Goldie for opening up your home to us, treating us like royalty, spoiling us with fantastic food (or rather, feasts) and wine, entertaining us with great stories and for being the most wonderful hosts that I can only hope to aspire to someday. Thank you to Donna and Chris for the excellent Sunday meal and great conversations. And to our favorite (and cheapest) tour guide, Michelle, thanks for spending your Saturday with us and showing us the lovely NYC. We had a fantastic trip!

I have many, many photos to share but will only post the highlights. Check out my facebook page for the whole album.

Showing off for the Smedman's - relationship to Henry would be first cousins twice removed (Donna and Chris) and second cousins once removed (Laura) -- isn't that crazy!!!
