NY 2009

We went to NY on a beautiful May weekend to celebrate my Aunt Peggy & Uncle Bobby's 40th wedding anniversary. It was so great to spend time with our extended NY family that we don't get to see too often. Maddy & I flew up with Mom & Angie, and it was fun having 1 on 1 time with Maddy. She loved meeting so many new cousins and wants to go back to New York !

Maddy did great on the airplane- she worked her charm and got extra cookies & peanuts as well as Sprite- which is a big deal to her...

Everyone hanging out in the Gulla's backyard on a gorgeous Friday AM.
