Wednesday, December 28

hope you’re still in the Christmas mood …

… because I still have a lot  of photos to share!   The day after Christmas found my family, plus my dad, my sister and her family in NYC for the day.  011_edited-1First up, “The Tree”.  It’s how most New Yorkers refer to the Rockefeller Christmas tree.  Isn’t she a beauty?

   020Favorite overheard line of the day:  “Why is it so crowded here?  What is everyone doing here at the tree?!?”  Um, same thing you are?  026027

Next up was Bryant Park, behind the NY Public Library (you’ve seen it in many movies I am sure.  The one with the lions in front?)  for a peek at their tree, the ice skating, and the holiday shops.  064

070Then on to Times Square.

The ball is up and ready to drop!

In the next post, I will show you the store windows I took photos of, as well as a few other goodies.  Hope you’re all relaxing and enjoying.  I am – there is something about this week that I love.  Enjoying the kiddos, and looking forward to the new year.  

Best,

Stephanie

    It brought back memories of seeing the tree!
    Can you believe it's the new year already
    I am excited for what it holds
    I have lots of ideas running through my little head-
    Looking forward to Saturday night being over though - and Sunday getting here- its going to be a crazy night at work - but this is my last holiday season spent at the restaurant I've decided that- my goal is to be done in November 2012- praying my business is strong enough then- excited to hear about the Mark 3 are you going to sell your 7 d?
