Over the Memorial Day weekend, we headed to the Big Apple to see a Broadway show with my daughters’ Girl Scout troop and their families. We’ve taken the girls to New York City before for a day trip to Central Park’s Zoo, but this was a weekend trip and my girls were beyond excited to see their first Broadway show.
