Sully in the City
 

I'm a New Yorker wannabe. I admit it. I've always dreamed of living in the big city, having a high-profile job, keeping up with the latest fashions and having to walk a few blocks to see grass and trees....

But, that life and my *real* path in life never truly collided. I have a great life: I live by the beach, have a great husband, a cute dog and a stellar career.....but it's not in the big city. I mean, Charleston is great, but it's not exactly skyscraper-ville. LOL.

ANYWAY, my fantasy was realized this past week, if only for a day....I lived the life. We stayed with friends who live in a highrise apartment in New York City, I dressed in black, wore my moviestar sunglasses.....and took my cute little dog on a walk.

Before we left, I received an invite from Peanut's Mom (Sasha) to attend a New York City yorkie meetup on Sunday afternoon!

Even though it rained, the turnout was great. This picture doesn't show everyone that showed up, but I'm glad I went despite the rain.

The first picture is the whole group, and the second is me and Sully with Sasha and Peanut (soooo tiny and the sweetest personality!) It was great to meet Sasha in person - she's great!

The third and fourth pictures are of me and Sully on a walk......my husband was my pretend paparazzi. LOL. The 3rd one is one of my favorite pictures from our trip......Sully barked at the chihuahua and right as he jumped in the air, the picture was taken. LOL, the odds!

Here are two more pictures.....

The first is of Sully and me waiting for the subway!

The second is me and Sully being silly......Sully "posing" for the Old Navy Mascot poster at a bus stop, hehe!

Looks like you had a great time. Your hubby takes some good pics... It does look like the paparzzi pics. you see in magazines from when they get shots of celebs

So we finally get to see Sully's big adventure in the BIG city!

very cute! And isn't the peanut a little cutie :D Annie is twice her size and Peanut could roll over her ;) My little woose!

Looks like you had a blast! :cool:

Glad to see pics :) :) Looks like you ALL had a great time meeting each other and the babies :thumbup: :D Great pics, all of them, thanks for sharing ;)

You are lucky to have a life like that.
NYC is dirty, noisy, and rude. expensive too.
I wouild kill for a life by the beach, simplicity and fresh air, no problems of big town, no smell of it too. Infact they can all stick all their fashion and high end jobs up their ass.

YOU & Sully look like TRUE New Yorkers girl ! GREAT pictures - I would love to live where you live NOW but I just bet it was fun being a city slicker - those pics were great - Sully is such a good traveller

All your pics look great and it looks like soooo much fun. I soooo hope I get to go to NY this year.

PS- Sully would be such an AWESOME Old Navy Mascot. Have you signed him up?

not a city type
 

My biggest fear in life was to ever have to go to New York City! I am such a small town "country mouse" , the largest town i can live in comfortably is like 60,000......even that intimidates me, but i can cope.When I went to get my visa to live in the UK with my hubby I had to go in person to the embassy in New york City...ALONE!! It was my greatest fear realized, and the most terrible week of my life, nothing against New yorkers, as i know so many very nice people from there, I just didn't know them back then, and being in the big scarey city alone with no one to make me see the other side of it, the side I hear about but don't see for myself...I guess it might have made it better to have known a new yorker back then.Anyways..I am so glad you got to get over to see the other Yorkies and be the New Yorker you dreamt of..and you certainly seem to fit the part quite well in your photos! Thanks for sharing your pics they are wonderful!

I've been waiting for these! Love, love, love the third shot. Sully in a blur. It's so ... Yorkie!

And you've GOT to post that last picture in the Old Navy contest. Even if you've already entered, cheat and enter him under an assumed name from a different town. If he wins, I don't think they'll mind. That's very clever and a classic pic.

Oh Val, I truly believe you and Sully could be "city people" those are such great shots :) I took Simon and Hallie last summer and it was too fun! I wish I could live there too, although I'd be scared out of my wits being the small town girl that I am!

Super Sully takes on NYC!!! LOVE IT!

Those are such cute pictures, you all must have had a blast!!!!

hey hey V, i was thinking the same thing- I bet Charleston is the bomb compared to Houston. But I know what you mean. NYC is so exciting and it looks like all of you had a blast. Thanks for letting us in on the fun. And how great was that- a YT meetup!!

DH and I are dying with laughter
 

OMG, these pics are awesome. I'm a total NYC girl (you'd never know living in WI) but the NYC lifestyle is so my speed. When I go to NYC it's hard for me to come home, lol All your photos represent very well. I love it. My fav is the subway one, just b/c the look on Sully's face sticking out of the carrier is hillarious! Too cute.

Sully in the Big City
 

Val...you always share the Greatest adventure pics with us! :) ;)

Sully...your so very loved~:love:

Wow it really looks you both had a blast in New York...those pictures are just perfect!!! I am so glad that you enjoy being a New Yorker for a day....hopefully I can one day get there!!

LOL, that bad, huh? I am sure if I lived there, I'd tire of the nonsense quickly. I love the beach, the palm trees and the warm weather here and I'd miss it a lot.

What brought you to NYC?

very cool pics
 

.. you guys look so cute..
my main question is WHERE DID YOU GET THAT COOOOOOOOOL BAG??!!??

Hehe...which one, the coach purse or the dog carrier? :D I bought the dog carrier from PetSmart and it was only like $25 bucks! It worked on the airplane and everything and is really comfortable to carry.

Those pics are so funny. Looks like you two enjoyed yourself. I especially like the girl with the umbrella in the background of that one pic...:questione

oh the coach bag is beautiful i have one just like it :)
I LOVE THE DOGGIE CARRIER! I DONT HAVE A PETSMART IN NYC :(
25 bucks thats insane! are they still selling em? or did you get this a while back! SO WHENS UR NEXT TRIP TO NYC? LOL

How cool, I so get what your saying about the big city life, seems so posh,and shiek..so unattainable..to me. But so cool, Where are you from? Oh, New York... lol :rolleyes: :cool:
You could live there Val , you and Sully would fit right in. :thumbup:

Love love love the pics....you & Sully look Wonderful Dahling

Those are great pics. Thank you for sharing.

I’ve always imagined living in NYC would be so glamorous and exciting, but I certainly wouldn’t trade a life on the coast for it. It sounds like the grass in your own backyard is pretty green. :)

It looks like you had a great time visiting your dream city. :)

Val! You and Sully look like you had a blast! I was so bummd out that we couldn't meet up...maybe next time?

Oh yes, Sully is DEFINITELY signed up for that. I am willing to travel and do whatever it takes b/c I really do think he'd be perfect for the 'job' Hehe! :)

BTW - for those of you who asked, here is the link to the carrier online, if you don't have a PetSmart in your area, you can always order it! http://www.petsmart.com/global/produ...N=2035805&Ne=2

Sully you are just a travelin' man! Thanks for sharing the pix Val. I enjoyed them very much.

very cute pics :)

Luv them all
 

All those pics where great. Looks like ur wish came true. Glad that both Sully and you had a great time and got to meet some Yt members...Way to go...
