Cannon Goes to New York

We have started a tradition in our family (inspired by some of our friends a church) that when a child turns ten, they get a trip by themselves with mom and dad (Karah had to come because she was too young to stay by herself). Cannon turns ten this month so he decided he wanted to go to New York. So early Friday we dropped all the kids off with the baby sitter and headed up to New York. Here are some of the photos:


This was us in front of the Statue of Liberty. We took a tour on a boat around the island right after this.



Cannon getting his first glimpse of Time Square. (That is a crazy place! People everywhere)



Here he is living out every kids dream, the biggest Toys R Us around! Even walking around Time Square with a giant penguin wasn't the strangest thing you would have seen that day.



This is Scooter and Sweetness in the hotel at the end of the day. Sweetness was an angel on the trip.



Later that night Cannon and I went out to see the lights of Time Square at night, where he also got his portrait drawn by some Russian dude.



This is a place we spent getting lost a lot. - The NY subway.



Best pizza in town. Worth the whole trip.

Who's this guy? --- This is our waiter at T.G.I Fridays. He said he was working to become an actor and had a extra roll in an upcoming episode of Law and Order. So we said, "Well if you're going to be famous, we'd better get your photo while we still can"
