Happy birthday, Deb, I didn't realize your birthday was just one day before Ashley's, when I'm celebrating her 21st birthday tomorrow I'll clink to you too.

Have a great birthday, maybe the kids will bake a cake for you, and dinner out so you don't have to cook?

Oh! Thank you everybody!! ItÂs wet and soggy here, but IÂm having a nice dayÂkids are at school, LOL!

IÂm celebrating my 50th birthday today by having all the kids have a "spend the night" guest. WeÂll have spaghetti and birthday cake. Yippee!

I AM counting my NYC trip as part of MY birthday celebration, even though it was REALLY for {{gwi:1524775}} She and I spent 4 days in NYC! We took the Acela train from DC. It was wonderfully civilized! Lindsay liked {{gwi:1524776}} (Ã la Star Trek) between the cars. Having already done all the obligatory monuments, etc, we got to really travel the city like locals. The first night we stayed at the Hilton on 53rd & 6th (Avenue of the Americas). The other nights we stayed at an apt on 55th and 2nd. WeÂd leave at 8:00 in the morning and didnÂt head "home" until 9:00 or 10:00 p.m.

I knew it would be a good trip by bedtime the first day. We wandered upon filming for a {{gwi:1524777}} We watched {{gwi:1524778}} on the street for a couple of hours. He never got out of the car, but we were thrilled to see him. Finally we decided to head to our hotel. We walked down the street that had all the trailers. No one was around. Suddenly Nicolas Cage walked out of a trailer, right onto the street right in front of us! We squealed like little school girls! He walked up to us, chatted with us for a few moments (well, HE chatted; we babbled and drooled and shook!). He let me take a picture of {{gwi:1524779}}. Ugh! I couldnÂt even hold the camera still or see the view finderÂI took a picture when he blinked! He was SOOOO gracious! I LOVE him even more now! But hey, Lindsay was so excited! We could barely sleep that night!

We saw Mamma Mia the next day! Fabulous! We spent a day and a half in Central Park (and even {{gwi:1524780}}), walked all over the place. We didnÂt actually do a lot of shopping. We wanted to be out on the streets and see the sights! We walked through most of the neighborhoodsÂ.Lower East Side, Chinatown, Little Italy, Nolita, TriBeCa, East Village, Soho, Greenwich Village, Chelsea, Meat Packing DistrictÂwe logged some serious miles! We tried to eat something in every neighborhood. We were stuffed by the time we left! Our last {{gwi:1524781}} was breakfast at Max BrennerÂs, {{gwi:1524782}} (OMGosh!) {{gwi:1524783}} Âall the time!!

We had a GREAT time! A wonderful 13th (for her) and 50th for me!!

Thank you again for the wonderful wishes!

Happy Birthday, Deb, from one Gemini to another. Your New York trip sounds fabulous!!!

Happy Birthday,Deb.Hope your enjoy your day.It sounds great.

Shelley

OMG, Deb, Lindsay is 13? A teenager? wow, how did THAT happen?

How cool that she got to have a picture with Nicolas Cage, even one with his eyes closed, she'll remember that for a long time and she and all her friends will watch that movie a zillion times, just because she got to meet him while he was filming. (grin)

I still need to get to New York city at some point. I will, I have to visit Carol (dishesdone). Anhd I love the train, I take a short train trip to Chicago from Grand Rapids, only 4 hours and about $60, I love it. You're right, it's a very civilized way to travel.

Annie

Happy Birthday Deb! What a fun time NYC was for you and your TEENAGER! Great pix, eyes closed or not.

What a fabulous trip! What great memories you've created. My mother and I did a trip to NYC when I was 11 and I've never forgotten how much fun we had!

Happy Birthday Deb, have a wonderful day!

Linda

Annie, I know! I'm not quite sure how the teen-thing snuck up on me, but it did! Now I have two of 'em!! Good grief! Lindsay's as tall as I am! Fortunately, I'd rather dress like Carol Brady than Miley Cyrus, so I don't think we'll be sharing clothes anytime soon! LOL!

Great memories made in NYC...you're right!!

Deb that was great that you met Nicolas Cage and managed to take a photo!
I can imagine how excited Lindsay must be now she has that.
And what a wonderful time the two of you had in NY.
I can't imagine a better way to celebrate birthdays!
