The Big Apple...

The week after Thanksgiving TJ, my Mom, Jeff, and I headed to New York City for a big city Christmas Vacation.  We had a great time but were so ready to come home after a long week of sightseeing.  We got to see some amazing things.  It really got me in the Christmas spirit and decorating the house when I got back was even more exciting.  Here are some pictures from our trip.  Hope everyone is having a great Holiday season!
Rockafeller Center

The Tree at Rockafeller Center


Skating Rink...we had lunch at that cafe you see.  It was great. 
There were skaters skating while we ate...very cool.

We never made it up early enough to get on the Today show but we did do the NBC tour.

Rockafeller Center...I think this building, the main building is called the GE Building.  I really don't know though.  That's sad isn't it...

Amazing view from the Top of the Rock

The famous Macy's

I wish I could say this was our hotel, The Plaza...but that would be a lie.  It was beautiful but our home away from home was the Hampton Inn Madison Square Garden.  It was great and all we needed!

Us at the Museum of Natural History...on the last day.
