New York City Trip

Disney in NY. We saw Mickey and Minnie and were able to go inside the Disney Store that was 2 floors. It was neat to see all the Disney stuff made for those shopping in NY.

On our walk we saw the Broadway signs for Mary Poppins and Lion King. Tickets were a little expensive for this trip, but maybe next time.

In Times Square...

We took the train from Princeton Junction to Penn Station 34th in NYC. The kids had a great time riding the train. When we walked out of the train station their eyes lit up with all that was around them. The lights, the signs, the cars, and the people. What an amazing experience for them. After we took a walk through Times Square we continued on our way to our hotel. Window shopping and enjoying the big stores. We headed towards a diner for breakfast. It was called the Stardust Diner. Here all the employees sing as they wait on you. It was neat for Peyton as this would probably be one of her dreams. We had a great breakfast and then continued on our way. We went past the Ed Sullivan Theatre where David Letterman is filmed. We went to F.A.O. Schwartz where the kids were amazed to see stuffed animals from the floor to the ceiling. Legos, Barbie and so much more were there to greet us.

At F.A.O Schwartz the kids loved to see the isles of stuffed animals bigger than us. They walked around and through to every department from one wonder to another. We saw the gigantic piano that was used in the movie "BIG" however we were unable to go on it because of a birthday party. We did get to see the amazing lego displays, candy displays, and books.

Valentine's Day Project

Valentine's Day Project
Peyton had to create her first Valentine's Day mailbox for school. This is what we came up with. What a fun project. She received many cards from her classmates and teachers.

Peyton was selected to read at the district's board meeting this past week. She was so excited that she was chosen to read. Her friend Alexandra was also selected.
Here is the video from that special night. Peyton is located behind the King Tut mask.

Here is one of Carson's pins. He has had 2. Each time that he pins someone he receives a gold pin to place on his bag. He was really excited to get them and stick them on his bag.

Peyton's Christmas Dance Recital

Peyton's winter recital was tap and to the song "We are the Wee Rockettes"

They did great-it was lots of fun and a great way to start the holiday season.

Carson's First Wrestling Match

Carson is ready to wrestle-He has watched others wrestle and is now ready for his turn. He is wrestling at 38lb weight class. A new sport for us and after watching the video-it might be something we have to get used to supporting. He loved every moment of it and even though he didn't win the match he won a medal and received a ribbon.

My beautiful babies

My friend Christina came and watched the kids and blessed us with so many wonderful pictures for the kids Christmas photos. There are so many beautiful shots of the kids. These were some of our favorites.
