On Friday while Kyle worked I had fun with my friend Cassie. Her husband also works for the same firm Kyle works for. One of my favorite places to come to eat while I'm in New York is called Serendipity 3. It is a VERY girly! Kyle been before with me, but only because he knew I would love it! Cassie and I decided we would give it a try and see if we could get in. Well...when we got there there was no one waiting outside the door. This shocked me! When I've come before and had a reservation there has always been a line outside the door. Back to the story...We spoke to the hostess and she said it would be about 30 minutes. Cassie and I looked at each other and said no problem. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes, but not a big deal because when we left the wait time was 2 hours! We got very lucky!!
This is what Serendipity 3 is know for, Frozen Hot Chocolate!! It is YUUMMMY!!!! Cassie and I split it because it was so big.
Yum, Yum!!
Cassie and I had so much fun!!!
Friday night was the Christmas party. I was so excited because it was at the Plaza hotel!! I was so sad that I didn't take any pictures inside the hotel. It was SO pretty!!! In any event Kyle and I had a great time!!!
These pictures were taken in our hotel room before we left.
My handsome husband!!!
On Saturday, we switched hotels. We went from the Sheraton to the St. Regis. Oh my goodness, the St. Regis in NYC is SO NICE!!! The weather in NYC on Saturday was not good. It was very cold and snowing and sleeting. Not a good combination when you want to be walking around. We ended up walking around in the morning and relaxing during the afternoon. That evening we headed out again, by that point the sleet had stopped but it was still really cold and snowing. One of the things we always do is go to FAO Schwartz and pick out a Christmas gift for Colsen. In the morning the line was wrapped around the store and we thought no way, we'll come back later. And that's what we did. At night, there was no line and we had a fun time walking around looking for the perfect gift for Colsen. We ended up getting him a wooden tool box with wooden tools. The one requirement, is that I have to be able to get it home on the plane either as a carry on or packed in my suitcase. The tool box was great and now that Christmas is over, I can say that Colsen loves it!
This picture was taken before we left to go out Saturday night. As you can tell I am VERY bundled up!!
This is so fun!! After we got back from dinner Saturday night, these cookies were on the coffee table with a sweet note from the St. Regis. I was so full from dinner that I only tried 2 cookies, but they we so good and of course, very pretty. I had so much fun hanging out with my hubby and I can't wait to go back!!!
