It has been just over 4 years since Libby and I went to New York City for our whirlwind weekend of fun with Crayola. We had such a great time and loved the city so much that I have been itching to go back ever since.

If I were to go back, which I do hope to do in the very near future, I would want to bring our entire family and show them all everything that NYC has to offer. Of course, traveling with 5 kids and 2 adults to the big city won’t be cheap and we would have to stick to a strict budget while we are there but I’m sure there are all kinds of things we can find to do that are free or budget friendly in addition to the things that we MUST see when we are there.

I want the kids to all see the beauty within Central Park, especially Bethesda Terrace and Fountain and Belvedere Castle. I know they would all ooohhh and ahhhh over the lights in Times Square. I want to walk through museums like the New York Historical Society with them and see all of the beautiful art and history within. I want to see a Broadway show like Aladdin, something the entire family would enjoy.

There is so much to do and see and Libby and I only got to see so much while we were there. I want to head to the city and explore. I feel like I need to visit Chinatown, ride the subway, hail a taxi and see and learn everything I can about NYC while I am there.
I want a picture of my entire family on top the Rock, in front of the Empire State Building and I want to be in it this time!

There is just so much to do and see that I think our family would have a great time and love everything about our trip.

Have you ever taken your family to New York?  What are some of the things you did or did not do that you would love to do again?

New York, I hope we meet again….VERY soon!
