LIVE from New York!

Okay, so not really Live, but you get the point....

One of the highlights from our girls' trip to New York was visiting Regis and Kelly on Wednesday morning.  We got up early and checked in at the studio at 7:45, just as the instructions asked, and waited in a fairly long line for what felt like forever!  They didn't open the doors to the studio until 8:45, and the show started at 9:00.

When we walked into the studio, the audience manager asked how many were in our party and we said two.  She told us there were two seats in the front row and to go ahead and take them....!  When we sat down, the lady behind us told us that the people who were there before us moved because the camera would be in our way for most of the show.  We didn't care-- we were in the front row!!!

Daniel Radcliffe from Harry Potter was on, but he came to the studio very early and they pre-taped it and showed it while we were there.  It was fine with me though because that was more time for Regis and Kelly to interact with the audience, which was PERFECT since we were right there in the front!!!  You are not allowed to use flash photography in the studio, so my pictures are awful (plus I look like a house in both of them....Regis and Kelly are tinier in person than on TV!  Oh, and the angle my from which my mom took the picture is not flattering either....ignore).

 Waiting for the show to start....again, these are HORRIBLE pictures!  I have about 8 chins in all of them :)
 Me and Regis! I am wearing Uggs...and I am THAT much taller than him!
 With Kelly Ripa-- she is soo so sooooo nice!  She even gave me a big hug before this picture...hence my goofy grin...
 And when Regis came back out in a purple tie, I had to get a picture of him doing the Horned Frog sign for my father-in-law (which Regis gladly did).
And sportscaster Jim Nance was there with his mother who is obsessed with Regis and Kelly, so as we were leaving I got a picture of him doing the frog sign too :)

Here is a link to the "host chat" from the day we were there...you can see me and mom at about 22 seconds in :) haha
