The Peas Take on NYC

We took advantage of the unseasonably warm weather and took a trip to NYC today to see the Christmas tree and to hang out for a few hours. It was crowded, chaotic, crazy, and FUN! Ryan and Evan loved it! I was a little worried about taking the boys over, especially since it was sure to be super congested because of the holidays. It was really easy, though. We can't wait to head back and take the Peas to Central Park and to the museums.


This is how they were the entire time~ heads turning back and forth. So much to see!


The Hollister store was pretty cool. There was actually a line to get in. I think if I had to stand in line to even get into a store I just wouldn't go!


I took this picture of St. Paul's Cathedral for Evan. He loves pointing out churches.


Lots and lots of walking


We finally made it to Rockefeller Center.


And there it is!


Too bad we didn't get a chance to see it all lit up at night.


I muscled my way in to get a glimpse of the skating rink.


Evan sat on the edge of his seat most of the time. Ryan knows that you have to have on your "mean face" in the city!





Is that who we think it is?


Elmo! We didn't see him at Sesame Place, but here he is now!


It's no surprise that Ev wanted to shake Elmo's hand.


Ryan...not so much! But he did tell Elmo bye-bye!


Mommy and Daddy take a rare picture together


Parker wanted to go in Harry Winston to buy me some new diamonds, but I told him that's okay. I already have enough high end jewels! Maybe I'll let him buy me some next time. HA! :)

What a fun way to spend the next-to-last day of 2011!
