New York City… Here we Come!!!!!

As you may know, I am really obessed with two places in this world: Africa and New York City. A dream of Chris and mine is to one day own a home in NYC. In fact, the January before I began HPC full-time Elevate, I almost moved there. I had an apartment, a roommate, and two jobs all lined up. At the very last second I realized that I didn’t have a peace about it and backed out. That fall I began Elevate- a year that completely changed my life, rocked my world, and reintroduced me to Mr. Chris Matt. Good move, huh!?

Chris and I have been racking our brain for months as to how we could afford to go there this year after Thanksgiving, when it’s all decorated for Christmas like a winter wonderland. The reality is that we can’t afford it right now. Without ever telling my mom, she offered to take us there at that very time! She’s selling her rent house and this is her present to herself, and our Christmas present. She and I are going to see Tina Turner at Madison Square Garden AND we are going to see The New York City Ballet Company performance of The Nutcracker. It was always my dream growing up to be a professional dancer… Though that didn’t work out, now I get to see the most beautiful ballet on the stage and by the company that it was created for. Plus, Chris and I are going to see a Broadway show (his first) and we are going to hit up some awesome NYC attractions and hot spots. Presley will get to see New York before she’s even a year old!!

We are so excited and so blessed. We can’t wait for this amazing trip!! God is so cool
