Wow! What a month this was!
First of all, I think we had one of the most MAGICAL and special Thanksgiving's EVER! We were invited to NYC to see the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade... VIP style! Enjoy the pics!
We usually drive to Staten Island and take the Staten Island Ferry to Manhattan!
We had friends whose parents have an amazing place that has 180 degree views of the parade route - but this Thanksgiving it was SO WARM so they had reserved front row seats at the parade and we enjoyed every minute of it!
View from the apartment!
Lots of security and media everywhere!
So, we went from the apartment to our front row seats all morning long - however our front row seats had coffee and pastries so we were all set!
Mariah Carey!
Nothing like being able to nap during the Thanksgiving festivities!
After our big feast, we walked to Central Park to let the kids run around and get some energy out....
Nothing compares to a NYC evening skyline pic!
Our friends made an incredible Thanksgiving Feast for us!
Of course, we went to the Rockefeller Tree but it wasn't lit up yet!
The amazing windows of Nieman Marcus!
Lego Store!
Waiting on subways.....
Back Home to NJ - everyone is exhausted!
We went to North Jersey one weekend where Brendon spoke at a church - they had an amazing gift basket for us!

A little tired?

We finally arrive to Poppy and Grandma's house on Christmas Day and all the cousins get to be together as my sister and her family flew in from Nashville! Both little girls celebrate their 1st Christmas together and meet for the first time!
What a month! Happy 11 months to our Baby Girl!
