Three teenage girls, three adult women, one bathroom, five days... = mayhem. It also spells giggles, shopping, exhaustion, FUN, chaos, and slumber party. Peter wisely left for the weekend. In fact, the first night he was around, but he cowboy'd up and spent the night in the "call room" at the hospital. When I asked him how it was he said, "hot and dirty." So, he was a real trooper. Once we got rid of him, the party started.

Party guests included my sister Teri and niece Miranda from CO Springs; my cousin Leann and her two daughters Morgan and Macy from southern central CO (SanLuis Valley). We did it all!

We shopped til we dropped; glammed it up at Sephora; signed up for and won the Wicked lottery (so Miranda and Morgan could see it. Thanks again Macy for so graciously obliging); ate at Planet Hollywood; ran away from crazy people in Times Square; went to the temple to do baptisms; stood in line for four hours to get on the Regis & Kelly show (I was too tired and bowed out, but the girls said it was wonderful); pigged out on NY cheesecake; walked until our feet hurt; saw the Easter Parade on 5th Avenue; relaxed by Harlem Meer in Central Park; saw "Million Dollar Quartet" on Broadway; went to church on Easter Sunday; saw the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island; shopped at Macy's; saw Madison Square Garden and the view from the 35th floor at One Penn Plaza (my workplace); ate pastries in Grand Central Terminal; ate Italian food in Little Italy; spent a lot of time and money in Duane Reade pharmacy (sadly, Teri had a bad cough the entire time); walked up 5th Avenue; discovered H&M; shopped at Macy's; enjoyed the Manhattan skyline from the Brooklyn Promenade; happened upon the Easter Parade and enjoyed the random costumes; bought uber amounts of $5 sunglasses, scarves and tee-shirts; avoided most of the rats in the subway; slept little; ate at TOM's RESTAURANT; saw celebreties in the Wax Museum; and gave money to a few street performers with surprising talent and entertainment value.

And now they're gone and I'm having girl withdrawls. But I'm so happy to have the Pete back!

Thanks ladies for a fantastic weekend! I laughed until it hurt and can't wait until we do it again.
