My little girl is in NYC!

I haven't been around much lately, we've been busy getting Laura ready for her Girl Scout trip to NY. She left Tuesday evening and is now in NYC.  :'( I am such a worry wart thinking about her taking the trains, the subway, walking the streets... so much could happen.
However, I saw her (& her group) this morning on the Today show  and they all looked happy, waving to the camera. Made me feel a lot better.

Here are some pix right before she left. The look on her face says "MOM would you STOP taking PIX!! You're embarrassing me!" 







There goes the train with my little girl on it.  They took this train into Chicago where they picked up the Amtrak train to NY.
I'll be glad when she's back home, safe & sound. I'm proud of them, though. They all worked very hard to raise the money for this trip.

Oh phooey, I didn't see Good Morning America this morning. I bet it was a relief to see them on TV. LOL. Wonder if they realize they were on TV.

Hey Karen, that's so cool, laura going to NYC and all. I sure can tell that she's your little girl.

She'll have the time of her life, and don't worrry.

If they don't know now, they'll know soon.  All the Moms taped the show and will be calling/texting their kids. The leaders do limit their cell phone usage, so it might be a few hours before they get word.
I wish they had chosen something more "brainy" to do than the Today show, but oh-well. They're teenagers. Afterwards they went on a tour of NBC studios.

Thanks Steve. Trying not to worry... Sure is hard!

It's difficult to loosen the leash but a little at a time is easier. 

I love the train station building!  I would definitely use the train if I had a station like that!

Karen, you know that if ANYthing happened, I could be there in 1.5 hours.

Awww Joyce.  Thank you.

It's the first time I saw that station and I fell in love with it. The station is hard to photograph because it was high on a hill. I want to build it with Legos.
