Winter in New York

Is cold, cold, cold!!! It was 25 degrees yest. and very windy.

Despite the freezing temperatures we decided to meet up with my Dad and sister, Kyra.
Kyra got 100% attendance in seminary so my Dad rewarded her with a trip to the city and a Broadway show.

We all agreed to try out the lottery for Shrek (you can win $26.50 tickets). You have to go to the M&M store's 3rd floor and sign up for a 10am drawing. There were probably about 40 people there and they gave away 16 tickets for the matinee show and 16 for the evening show, so basically almost everyone got in. Kyra and my Dad both won so we were all able to go to the show! It was really cute and funny. The guy who plays Lord Farquaad did the whole show on his knees! I was very impressed.
The only bad part was when Kyra started vomiting at the very beginning of the show and spent the rest of the time in the bathroom. We all felt really horrible for her but she wanted us to stay. She's very sweet that way.

I feel like we take this same picture everytime we are in the city.

Kyra had been feeling naseous all day and this was right before we went into the show. What a good sport!

Notice we have the same bag! We are twins!!
