    Weekly Wrap-up: New York

    Published: Nov 9, 2014 ยท Updated: Aug 25, 2019 ยท Post may contain affiliate links

    Recap of my weekend in New York City plus posts from the week

    Whew what a week!

    I had a busy week preparing for my girls trip to New York and my week in Portland {next week}, traveled on Friday, and had quite the day of travel on my way home {bumpy flights, plane drama, extended delays, rude people}.

    This weekend I went to New York for one of my best friend's birthday/bachelorette celebrations, and it was a blast!!

    Our local NYC friend Leah planned it, and she did a great job with making fabulous reservations and ensuring we all had fun! {thanks again Leah!!!}

    I loved getting a chance to reconnect with some of my college and high school besties 🙂
    {feel free to scroll to the bottom of the post to see pictures}

    Here are the posts from the week:

    bowl of Steak and Potato Soup and pot of soup
