What are the chances?

This past weekend was awesome. My Aunt Karen and I went to NYC to celebrate our birthdays. We ate, shopped, ate, shopped...did I mention that we shopped. Oh, and we saw a show. We went to Wicked and it was AWESOME!!!! If you ever have a chance to see the show you really, really should. It was fabulous. My favor scene/song was Popular! I know some of you are surprised by that.

Here's where the story gets crazy. Karen and I were in Tiffany's shopping for our b-day gift for each other and all of the sudden I hear "Barry University...Miami Shores." I turn around and spot a girl that I went to college with and was in Student Government with. Her name is Monica. She works a Tiffany's. Crazy. I was totally blown away by the interaction and the chances of that happening in NYC.

So the story continues. On Sunday night I was sitting in the airport amazed at the fact that Rosie O'Donnell was right in front of me with her kids. (I'm not a Rosie fan so it wasn't that big of a deal, but still cool to watch her walk around like common folk.) Then I see this guy come out of the store and think "hmmm, that guy sure does look like my buddy Phil Stein from high school." So I stalk him and follow him around the corner. He went into the bathroom so I stood across the hall. When he came out I recognized his mannerisms and knew it had to be him. So I did the famous yell out and see if he turns around. He did. SERIOUSLY? How do I run into two people from my past? It was crazy. Really cool to see Phil because I met his fiance. She's really cool. It's pretty neat to be able to meet her because Rob and I are going to their wedding in Fl on Nov 1st so now I won't be the random friend who doesn't know the bride and the groom.

Anyways, I had to share that story. NYC was fantastic. I'll have to take a pic of my favorite fake Prada that I bought. Love it!

My children (yes, two of them)

Little update - Peyton is really into sorting now. We sort constantly. We take things out and put them back in. And, then we do it again and again and again. We also are obsessed with putting things around her neck. We like wearing "scarfs." These "scarfs" vary - they can be an actual scarf (see red and green item in photo), a dog choke chain, a pair of pants, a doll, a ribbon, etc. Very entertaining I must say. We went to the doc on Monday too and Peyton's foot is normal according to her. I guess at this phase of development it's normal for a child's foot to turn in some. The flexibility in her ankle is fine and therefore in at least a year her foot should straighten out. She weighs 20.6 pounds and she stood on the big girl scale.

Correct. That is the answer to your question of "is that a motorcycle in Kelly's driveway?"

Here is the culprit. As we pulled into the driveway from my lovely hospital stay my Dad said "check out my birthday gift that I bought myself!" I was too weak to even fight the fight. So later I realized that I have an 18 year old teenager living with me. He's old enough to make his own money and buy his own things, but he still lives under my roof so technically it should be my rules. Well...my rules are NO motorcycles. Needless to say, the bike is still here and it's still sitting in that same location. I'm hoping my Dad procrastinates as usual and nothing ever happens with the bike. I can only hope...
