Statue in Madison Square Park
Concert at The Living Room
"One belongs to New York instantly, one belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years." ~ Thomas Wolfe
My First fill weekend in New York was wonderful. I could not have asked for a better time. After work on Friday, I met up with some friends in Madison Square Park. We headed to a fun bar where we all pretended we were friends with some guy named Nigel in order to get the VIP wristbands. Little did the guy at the door know, that we had NO CLUE who Nigel was. We just wanted half price drinks! Later that night, I met up with some friends from Auburn to catch a small concert at a cozy little place in the Lower East Side called the living room. The music was amazing and the musicians were so nice. They came up and talked to us like we had known them for years.

Saturday was a great day to explore Manhattan. Ashley and I spent the day walking around the city hoping in and out of any store that caught our eye. From Kate Spade to Madewell, we found something that we would kill to have. The Free People store is AMAZING. It looks exactly like you would imagine. Once you walk in, you will never want to leave! After shopping all day, I decided it was time for some Alabama football. I headed to the Alabama Alumni Association of New York viewing party to watch the game with fellow Bama Fans. I met my future husband that night. His name is Greg McElroy. A former QB for Alabama, and a current player for the NY Jets, I know that we will have a great life together full of football and fun! After out shutout against N. Texas, I met up with some friends in the Financial District. We went to one of their friends apartments on Wall Street. This apartment was MASSIVE. The apartment had 5 bedrooms and several bathrooms which is extremely rare in NYC. The Apartment was directly across from Trump Tower, to the right of the New York Stock Exchange, and next door to Tiffany's. Perfect Location!
