New York City!

On Saturday Reagan and I had a SUPER special day planned!!  We were going to New York to see the Rockettes with Grandpa, Miss Diane, and Jordan.  We were SOOO excited!!




We drove up to Diane's and then left for the city from there...we made good time and before we knew it the big city was right in front of us!



We were a few hours too late to see Erica and Lester :)

The "tree"...we could see all of about 3 branches poking out!  What a job to light that!

Checking out the ice skaters with Grandpa!



We strolled along 5th Avenue with the time we had before the show...just looking!  The Plaza is having some renovations done, but even their tarp looks like the hotel...wonder how much that cost??

(the weather couldn't have been better!  we weren't cold at all and there wasn't a cloud in the sky...it was perfect!)

We just HAD to go in FAO and Reagan loved this candy princess!

In true Reagan style...hamming it up in the middle of the store :)



We were able to meet up with my city livin' cousin, Emily, and WHY I didn't take a picture with her I'm not sure!  I was so glad we were able to see her :)

Almost showtime!


The show was AWESOME!!!!  It was SO fun to see and SO fun to watch the excitement through Reagan's eyes.  She said her favorite part was the Nutcracker scene and the dancing Santas...it was great!

We went to a 4:00 show, so by the time we got out it was dinner time.  We had a yummy dinner at a restaurant in Times Square and then walked back to our car.

We ran into Mickey and Minnie in Times Square and Reagan really wanted her picture taken with them...please note they both have "purses" for TIPS...Mickey hunted my dad down until he gave him money...I was so annoyed with that Mickey...grrrr!

We had to wait awhile for our van to come out of the parking garage and then we were on our way...Reagan passed out around 9.  She was such a trooper and had such a fun day!

On our way back Sunday morning...sleepy, sleepy girl!

Since the weather was so nice on Sunday it was "put the outside Christmas lights up" day!  Keith and John worked hard getting the lights up and they look great :)  The kiddos had fun helping too!



It's officially getting close to the holiday season...Reagan and Landon are singing Jingle Bells and Frosty on repeat.  If you know me, you know I'm loving every minute of that...proud mommy moment :)
