To New York and Back

Five of us kids took a random trip to New York, out of the little moment of spare time we found, to surprise our dear cousins up there, and have a bit of a vacation. :) 

Early Friday February 14th (ValentinesDay) we traveled...
 Sheila and Kendal
 Sandra and Susanna
 Susanna and The driver, Nevin.
We arrived later in the afternoon, to a friends place, The Laudon's. They fed us and we visited, then in the evening we went to the gym and met the relatives and other friends and played volleyball. :)


Saturday: Us girls went to a ladies thingy...
Sue and Brenda
 Sharla and Sheila
 Sandy and Tabitha
