Back!

The girls and I are back from the Crayola Pop Art Pixies NYC event. Wow! We had a WONDERFUL time. It is over 15 years since I was last in NYC, so just going back for another visit was cause for celebration alone.

We had so much fun. Our accommodations were at "The W" hotel in Times Square. The hotel was very up-to the minute, trendy, modern and contemporary. The bar was a hot spot at night. If I had been sans children, I would have ventured in for a glass of wine, but obviously that was not the case :)

Friday night we hit the Pink Carpet, complete with videographers, photographers and an interviewer. We proceeded to the main event room where we had a dinner of kid friendly foods (mini-cheeseburgers, mini-hot dogs, chicken tenders, fries, etc. We also had an evening of crafts lined up with the girls. (I will be posting more about that later, when I have good pictures to share). After the party ended, a few of us hit the Streets and shopped.

Saturday we started early at 8:30am. We had breakfast, a small craft then we went on our all day adventure. More about that in future posts.

For now I am recuperating from the trip - unpacking, catching up on sleep, etc. I cannot wait to share with you details of where we went, what we saw and how we got there :) Thanks to Crayola for a fabulous trip and a lifetime of memories! Check back soon for all of the Pixie details.


I was invited to the NYC event by Crayola. Our travel accommodations, meals, travel expenses and samples of Pop Art Pixies craft projects were provided by Crayola. I was not required to write a positive review. For more information on this blog and on my posting practices, please refer to the disclosure policy below.
