The Marsden`s take Manhattan

Mom took Chris and I and my brother Allen and his girlfriend Jennifer on a trip to New york for Christmas! We are so spoiled! We had a lot of fun and my sister Jen came to! Thanks Mom!

We`re off!

First stop was to the famous Roxy`s for a huge over sized and over priced turkey sandwich!

Hungry?

One of the best things we did was find this free bathroom in Time Square. You go up this escalator and there was a Charmin fun house full of bathrooms. You just went in a room and you got to use a nice bathroom and try the Ultra soft toilet paper. The whole time there was a jingle that was constantly playing "Chaaarrrminn where the goin' is always good..." It was funny! The whole place was decorated with fake trees and snow and even the little bears from the commercial.

In the candy section there was a giant soilder made of jelly beans.

We loved going in the toy store and Chris and I each picked out one thing for Camden`s Christmas. Ok...I got two things. ( ;

So we had a great time in NY with my family and we were also able to see a close family friend Logan and another close family friend of ours Melanie who both live in New York! One of our favorite parts of the trip was seeing 'Shrek' the musical on Broadway. It was really funny! We also had a blast eating dinner in Little Italy. The food was awesome and while we were eating it began to snow. It was very picturask!

But the very best part of the trip........

was coming home to this little man!
