it's christmas time in the city...

and i can't get enough of it!!

the first weekend in december we took at trip to NYC with mark's parents and sarah and christman. just the six of us, no kids. the trip was planned to celebrate marsha's birthday, but i think we all appreciated and enjoyed the trip. what a treat to be in the greatest city at christmas time!

marsha (the birthday girl), me, mark

i love NYC. i love the hustle and bustle. i love riding the subway. i love all the people. i love the christmas decorations EVERYWHERE. i love central park. i love the theater. i love the yummy food (yes, even the street food). i just love the feeling you get when you are in the middle of it all. all that said, i was so excited to be back in the city. we had a super fun time, well i did anyway!

we ate some delicious food...

my favorite dessert @ sea grill on the rockefeller ice skating rink



shopped...
macy's. it is the BIGGEST store ever and it was soooo crowded. christman bought a really fun pair of shoes here.

rode the subway and a carriage ...

all over the city.

through central park.

went to see the rockettes...

at radio city.

had fun just being together...
all together at dinner our last night.

and even got to experience the snow...

the last night while we were at dinner in rockefeller center. it was beautiful.


mark and i also had the chance to visit our sweet friends, the sullivans, while we were in town. i loved hearing all about their life in city. it made me want to move there. even though they live an adorable apartment a quarter of the size of our house. it seemed just perfect to me! we also got to see wicked and then go to a fun dinner. the show was AMAZING, the best i have ever seen!! the restruant was recommended by our friends and it was WONDERFUL!

it was a great trip. thanks danny for a FABULOUS trip filled with lots of memories.
