Mary Ann and I have made a lot of scrapbooks over the years, but the scrapbook we made from our trip to New York is our biggest one ever.

When Mom saw it, she said it’s SUPERSIZED, just like New York City. And she’s right. We just had so many good pictures to put in it! It was really hard to choose, but here are some of my favorites.

And Mary Ann and I on top of the Empire State Building

If you ask Mary Ann or me, we would both tell you that we loved New York City. But here’s the funny thing about our trip: even though not every minute of it was perfect, when we look at our pictures, Mary Ann and I agree it was all good because we did it together.

Mom says things are always good when you’re doing them with someone you care about.

I will say this: I don’t always agree with my mother, but this time, I, Mallory McDonald, officially think she is right.

I’ll say one more thing too. And since Mary Ann is standing right here beside me, we’ll say it together: We officially loved, loved, loved our trip to New York City!
