Stinkin bummer on the cell for sure! Wicked was SOOO GREAT. Loved it. It had a little "Legally Blonde" twist to it (with Glenda the good witch growing up) SO GREAT!
The Rash. Not sure. REal red & dry behind the legs--itchy to C. Not sure what it is. Don't think it is excema. :(

Sounds like you had a blast in NYC, so glad to hear! Too bad about little C's rash, hope he gets better soon. Are you getting a new cell phone?

It sounds like you had the time of your life. (Besides the losing your cell phone part.) I loved learning about your trip in this post. Do you have lots of pictures to post? Have you NOT put C down since you got home?

And, no. The pictures are from a different park. This one is completely cross town...our VERY, very favorite. You feel like you're driving onto someone's farm.
