Macy's at Christmas

















For anyone who has not experienced Christmas in NYC, you need to schedule it. The street performers, the light displays, ice skating in Central Park, the window displays, and especially the Rockefeller Tree. They all are special treats to add to the normal wonders of NYC. Macy's Department store is especially decked out. They have Christmas decorations from floor to ceiling everywhere, and have a whole floor designated just for Christmas decorations. I'll add a few more photos below, just for your imaginations pleasure.

April 12th


















Played with Sam, Took a nap, Made rolls
Laughed at my sisters buttering skills,
Gave Emma her very belated birthday gift,
Watched Heidi open her birthday presents,
Had lime jello cake for Heidi's b-day,
Watched D disgustedly clean the girls room,
Ate a yummy Easter dinner,
Listened to the kids play the Wii,
Hung out with D and Chris,
Watched the Amazing Race.

Heading West Day 1

After a sad farewell to Maryland my sister, my niece, and I headed towards our destination of Ohio. It was a pretty easy drive although the winds were crazy and my car was still getting used to heading up hill. (Cant wait till the Rocky Mtns....)

Our tourist destination for the day was Ohio - The birthplace of Longaberger. We stopped in Dresden for lunch at Popeye's Soda Shoppe and then it was my fun to introduce my sis to the Homestead and Headquarters. We luckily got there on the last day of their annual spring fling. If you can picture hundreds of middle aged Caucasian laddies all with baskets in hand you can picture the event. There was even a contest were 4 lucky contestants got to dash for as many baskets as they could carry off in 30 seconds. Good laughs there!

We stayed our first night with our Aunt Sherilyn and Uncle Mike in Enon Ohio.

Now off to "day two" and all the new adventures it holds.
