Christmas in New York

We don't make it to the city often, but we always go during Christmas time. We had a great time this Saturday with the girls and their cousins. We took the train into the city which is always a fun way to start our adventure. Then we went to Macy's to see Santa. Elizabeth asked for a dog and a snowy Christmas, I know she is not getting one and the other is not up to me, so we'll see how that turns out. Katie told Santa to surprise her. I told her she should be more specific or he might surprise her with something she doesn't want or worse yet with nothing. And Danielle didn't cry when he held her what more can you ask. We saw the tree at Rockefeller Center which was beautiful and packed full of people. Finally, we took a trip to Build-a-Bear, the girls wanted to go to the American Girl store, but there was a line to get into the store, so we will save that for another time. There were alot of people out on Saturday, but you could feel the excitement for Christmas. I was a little worried about taking the girls and a baby, but Danielle was great the whole time. She sat in the stroller and tried to take it all in. We had a great time and can't wait until Christmas.
