NYC Holiday Update

My parents officially arrived on Monday (for anyone who hasn't heard me giddily babbling on about it)!! Not much to say except that I'm so incredibly happy that they are here and we have already had so much fun! So, I'm just going to post the few pictures we've taken already. Enjoy! 


They flew in on such a beautiful sunny day! After a quick nap (they took a red eye here, which can be difficult) we headed off for a walk through Central Park before dropping me off at work. It seriously was just a perfect day. 


At the turtle pond. Sadly, the turtles must go somewhere for the winter. But there was this awesome look out tower/observatory in the background. 


At the Great Lawn. We were happy that some of the trees still had leaves on them! 


Their adventures began today at Ground Zero, brought them to Grand Central Station (pictured above), then to the Rockefeller Center, and ended with an amazing show! 


Mom at the Top of the Rock (the Rockefeller Center) before the rain really started to come down. 


That storm came in . 


While they were on top, we hung out at the bottom watching the ice skaters (so excited to go!). That construction in the background is for the Christmas Tree! 


Dad with Indiana Jones at FAO Swartz. (Random stop on 5th Avenue before making it back for the show)


Best decision so far, tickets to the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall!! (If you don't know what that is, look it up. It seriously was amazing)


I don't really know how to explain it even. It really is a Christmas Spectacular and just such a great way to start out the Holidays! I'm already getting SO excited for Christmas!


More pictures to come as the week progresses!

  2. Don't tell me it replaced watching Muppets Christmas Carol for making it feel like Christmas time?! Looks like good times! You do get at least Thanksgiving and the day after off right?
