nyc review

Yes, Chelsea made it back from NYC--the big apple....not sin city...that's Las Vegas....

She had a blast! She did call at most every moment she could. She had lots to report! If you check out her pictures you will see some of what they did. She was disappointed that the conference was set up in such a way that you didn't always get into the workshop you wanted. It was a first come/first serve basis. So one day they didn't get into anything they were remotely interested in. She was a little sad about that.

Her highlights were...seeing a woman dressed as an angel singing opera for her living in the subway, a pimp (see pictures), going to Times Square, NBC studios, Top of the Rock, the St. Patty's parade and all the drunk people, eating at Carmine's and seeing the 25th annual Spelling Bee of Putnam County.

She thinks she is soooo ready to move to NYC! I am glad she had a good time. She learned a few things are her eyes were opened to a world she is not a part of everyday but all in all...she's the same kid.

My parents pulled a "While you were out" on her with her room while she was in NYC. It looks really good. I hope to have pictures up soon..well as soon as my mom finishes her room...which hopefully will be Tuesday.

Oh I do have to say, that Chelsea probably got no more than 5 hours of sleep a night while she was gone and she has done really well with her attitude! I am very proud of her!

So all in all, I grade this test a "A". There is always room for improvement!

So glad that Chelsea had a fun time. Love the pictures! Chelsea is growing up - what a pretty girl. I'm glad that Abby wants to be a teenager like Chelsea some day :) Abby has a great role model. Can't wait to see pictures of Chelsea's room - how fun!
