Birthday in NYC

My baby turned 12!  So in Pennington family tradition she had a 12 year old trip.  She went with her cousins to NYC.  We left on Thursday and came home on Sunday.  We packed everyday to the fullest!  The trip stared out with a limo ride from the airport!  We didn't tell the kids and they were so excited when it parked in front of us and we told them that was our ride!  On her birthday she went with her cousins and did Baptisms in the Manhatten Temple.  That was really cool.  Then off to China town to do some shopping and then dinner and Time square.  The next day we started off with the Staten Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty then went to the 9/11 memorial, the broadway show wicked on actual Broadway and then biking in central park and dinner again in Time square.  We had the best time!  We sure love this Birthday girl!
Started the day before with a birthday lunch with her be sties
