Christmas in NYC!

As promised, here’s a peek at the 2019 Girls’ Trip to NYC! First, a big shout-out of thanks to my wonderful daughter and daughter-in-love who planned this event as a combined Christmas/birthday gift for me. (Do you think they know how much I love Christmas?) How lucky am I to have two such strong and talented ladies in my life. Love you!
