made it to ny

we've made it to ny (yes, attempted the drive from philly on a friday afternoon) and miraculously didn't hit any traffic. it was really odd packing for the end of december - we almost forgot our winter coats!

we're just about ready to go - need to visit with some family and friends as well as make some hotel reservations, but all in all we're just about there!

packing, packing, packing

while we're off from work this week, we haven't slowed down at all. seems like the to-do list keeps getting longer and longer. our excitement also keeps growing and growing. the more we research, the more we can't wait to go! wheee!

oh, and by the way, if you ever need cheap passport photos, go to cvs. but first, have someone take a head shot of you. if you bring your camera card to the self-serve kiosk, you can print 6 passport photos on a 4x6 paper for the regular cost of a single picture. yay!
