We know we could tell you all that we love you and miss you but we thought that the kids could say it better........

Christmas Eve Pictures

Some Pic's

Not to be outdone.......

So, Eva after having to sit through last month's "student of the month" assembly and watch her older sister awarded the coveted designation, Eva did all within her power to make sure that she would be "student of the month" in December. All of the hard work paid off :). Mom got to attend another assembly and be proud for a second month in a row. Eva was honored for "telling wonderful stories." We all know that she is good at that!!:)

Grand Central Station

We headed off to Grand Central Terminal this weekend to see the famous "Kaleidoscope" show. It is basically a light show set to music that plays over the walls and dome of the main lobby of GST. The girls had a good time watching it and we got a very small video segment (due to a full memory card:) of it so you can check it out. I threw in a picture of us headed there on the subway, and a few of us getting ready to go- for good measure.

Rockefeller Christmas

Here are a few pictures from some jaunts we have made to Rockefeller this month. We find ourselves heading to this area quite a bit. It tends to be cleaner than most areas of Manhattan, less crowded than Times Square and with more "family friendly" advertisements (aka no half naked billboards), and has some of the best shopping. We also find ourselves in the Bryant Park Area- just a few blocks south which is becoming equally nice- and close to dad's work which means we can stop in any time for a free hot chocolate and snacks :). The first picture is of the girls and I posing in front of some giant Christmas Lights. The funny thing was- neither of the girls had any idea what these were until they were told. They also had these huge Christmas bulb-like decorations. The second picture is taken of Marc and the kids outside St. Patrick's Cathedral. We came back tonight (the 22nd) and to show the girls the Snowflake show and window displays of Saks Fifth Avenue- while we were there Marc stopped in to buy me a few last minute Christmas gifts. Wait, that was my dream last night :) There was no shopping to be done..... but we did get a glimpse of the Rockefeller tree from far off and that was a treat.
