NYC Trip Itinerary

Hey y'all...I am literally counting down the days until we leave for NYC (45 to be exact)...I am so, so excited! Julianne and I have already figured out a "Must See/Must Do/Must Eat/Must Go" list, but I wanna hear from you guys who have been, and have been to amazing places that others might not know about! We arrive in NYC on Thursday afternoon and plan to check into our hotel, then we have dinner reservations at Del Frisco's, then to Radio City to see the Christmas Spectacular. We plan to wake up Friday morning and not stop until we board our plane Sunday! Ok, well, we may take a few power naps...since we are staying in a fabulous hotel ;) 
These are some of the things we have said we must see/do while we are there...so tell me...what are we missing?!

Let's play catch up...

Hey y'all it feels like forever since I've actually sat down and did a real blog post. I get on blogger everyday and catch up on my favorite blogs, but haven't really found the time to catch up on my own...so here are a few things that have been going on...

Just in case you missed it...Nathan and I got engaged...on my 25th birthday...it took several days for it all sink in, but once it did I was very very excited! I really can't wait to spend my life with him. I never knew I could love someone as much as I do him. Everything is just simple...and even though we are complete opposites, we work so well together...

My girls and I have been some crafting fools...look us up on the book of faces...it's super fun, but it's keeping us super busy!

As far as a wedding date, Nate and I are thinking September of next year, we may do it in the Spring...we've still not decided for sure...I had gotten into full wedding planning mode a couple weeks ago; but realized I have more than enough time to plan a small wedding, so I am going to get through my NYC trip, and Christmas, then pick up the planning again in January.

Speaking of NYC...Julianne and I keep adding things to our itinerary! Our first night in town we've made reservations for Del Frisco's and we got tickets to the Radio City Christmas Spectacular...we are super excited!

I finally jumped on the Erin Condren band-wagon today! I ordered a certificate from One Kings Lane today to get a life planner! I am so excited to order it later this week!

Nathan and I are going to start looking for a house after the first of the year, which is exciting, but also seems stressful. I hope we can just find something we both love! 

I have been an absolute failure at sticking to any kind of budget/saving money program. I don't really know what the deal is. I did the Dave Ramsey class last year, and really enjoyed it and thought it benefited me, but obviously it didn't. I've got to get back on the band wagon! I've been a spending fool lately! :(

I'm gonna share a few recent pictures...one of my favorite little girls Sydney Kate had a cowgirl birthday party last week and I finally got to use my new camera Nate got me for my birthday. Jenn at Perfectly Imperfect recommended this Canon point and shoot, because I didn't want a bulky DSLR, and I love, love, love it! Thanks Jenn!
Marcus, Mitchell and I
Delaney
Please excuse the lumberjack plaid, jeans and boots were required and this is as cowgirl as I get ;)

The Birthday Girl and her pony!
Well, I'm glad we could catch up...basically thanks for listening to me ramble! There are so many exciting things coming up that I can't wait to share with you guys! I hope you're all doing well, and having a great week so far!
