last full day in USA... (for a while)

Today we went shopping at Uniqlo. We were very successful! I have gotten six shirts and three skirts there:) Next we went to the Lindt store ...again. But this time we got one hundred! We had lunch at a cute health cafe. I got spinach salad with cranberries, mushrooms, green peppers, and honey mustard sauce, and tofu. It was a refreshing change! Next we went to the Brooklyn Bridge and it. Was. Dang. Hot. !!! We were sweating buckets! Dad did his traditional crawl across the bridge:) (inside joke) weren't in the mood to ride the Subway again so we took a ferry. It was so beautiful and another magical moment:) the sights are so beautiful! We got gelato again after regrouping at our place. We headed out to do a pizza crawl next. We tried a white sauce slice with caramelized onions and a hint of lemon and ricotta on a sesame seed crust, then a slice of tomato and basil and mozzarella and lastly a striped square slice of super fresh tomato sauce and lots a cheese. Dad and I voted the second as our favorite and Ruby liked the last. Ya, it was good.
We just finished packing so we can have a relaxing breakfast before heading to the airport tomorrow. This has been an amazing trip and I'm so glad we could spend it with dad. I just wish mom could have come! Next time:)
Thanks NYC!!

The Help by Kathryn Stockett The Help is a great book for young adults and mature teenagers. It is education, funny and insightful. It is 444 pages, but a definite page turner. I rated it 5-stars because it is such a great book. It is basically about how unfairly African-Americans were treated in the 1950s and 60s. It changes perspective about every chapter, but it's fairly easy to follow along. It is from the point of view of 3 women from Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960's. Aibileen, Minny and Miss Skeeter are the narrators. I thought it was unique that it had more than one narrator and it allowed you to understand the story much better. Aibileen (my favorite character) is a black women who is "the Help" to Miss Leefolt. She is kind, wise and smart. Throughout the story she develops a strong bond between Miss Leefolt's little girl, Mae Mobley. Miss Leefolt is very strict and rather  oblivious to Mae Mobley. She doesn't really know how to raise her, so Aibil...

On the seventh day of Christmas

December gave to me....early out from school! Davis made their goal of getting $6,500 in 5 minutes during our "Dash for Cash" and earned a 'Christmas Officer Talent Show Assembly'. Otherwise known as 'Go Home After Four Shortened Class Periods.' So we got out at about 11:45 and Emily, Amy, Ruby, Emily M and I went to Fiiz and Bowman's to get stuff for friend gifts. I got some Lindt truffles. We went to Emily's for lunch, then Emily and I went to Farmington Station for a successful holiday shopping trip. Then we went and got her little sisters; Christina and Ellie, and I got Ptolemy and we went to Alexander's Bad Day at Kaysville Theatre. My mom ended up going too and taking Xanthe and Tizzy, who we hadn't had room for in Emily's car. It was such a cute movie! Then I took Ari and her best friend Ellison to Yogotogo. They're such cute girls. It's funny to hear their Junior High stories/experiences/slang. Oh those good ole' awkw...
