New York

Lord and Taylor had the best Christmas window display we enjoyed window shopping on our last day.  We couldn't wait to get home to Luke it was so hard to be without him and leaving him for the 1st time and being that far away just killed me.  I was waving to all the babies I saw missing my own little guy.

Macy's also had a great Christmas display

I think I would get tired holding my arm up after awhile.  We walked so much too that my feet swelled at the end of every day not the best getaway for a 5 month pregnant girl I had to waddle behind and try to keep up.

Four years ago Ben and I got engaged at the top of the Empire State Building it was the best surprise I had no idea and was so happy to say yes to him.  He is an amazing husband and father I am a blessed woman.

On Sat. night we took everyone out to dinner at the very first Pizza place in America.  It was great pizza and it was fun for us all to be together on the last night.

It also stated to snow something we won't see living in Arizona.  It was cold but not bone chilling cold.

In Times Square

After dinner we rushed again to see the Play "All My Sons" at the Schoenfel Theater.  It is a dark drama but still very good.  Katie Holmes is starring in it along with other great actors.  It was great to see and Katie Holmes is very tall and thin she also acted very well too. 

After that I ran into Elmo.  I was so excited to pay a dollar to take my picture with him.  Luke will be so excited that his mama met Elmo.

New York

After we saw the Rockettes we had to rush and meet Ben's good friend Alex and his girlfriend for dinner we ate at the bottom of Rockefeller center in front of the ice skating rink we saw a couple get engaged on the ice too.  It was great seeing Alex and meeting Rachel.

Inside Radio City Music Hall where the Rockettes performed we came here 4 years ago when we got engaged and took a picture in the same place.

At our hotel everyone was dressed up and ready to go see the Rockettes

Earlier that day Ben and I went shopping all over the city and we ended up in front of where the World Trade Center used to be.  They are building a memorial there now.  

The day before in front of a building there we tons of Nutcracker men and I made Ben take a picture next to one.  It was cold for us so it was easy for him to act like the stiff Nutcracker dude.

We had a great time in NYC.  We took Ben's staff and their husbands to NY for the weekend there were 12 of us that went.   We made the most out of the 4 day trip.  The girls all had the time of their lives too.  Ben and I at Italian restaurant on Mulberry St.  It was so good it was a perfect dinner at the end of our 1st day there.
In front of the big tree in Rockefeller Center.  We took a tour of NBC studios my fave part was seeing the set of SNL.  
They were filming the Today show outside I took Ben's pic in front of where they tape the show outside.  We ate at that Dean & Deluca a few days later.  

We went to see the Rockettes the next night at Radio City Music Hall with everyone it was the perfect show to get you in the mood for Christmas.

Right when we got to NY Ben and I checked in we rushed over to get tickets for the Late Show but he was not filming again till Monday so we missed out.  Rachael and I saw the show 3 years ago and it was fun so I wanted to do it again.  I was bummed for a bit but there was so many other things to do we managed to survive.
