Carnegie Hall, The Polar Express

We went with Giacomo's friend Ethan to see the NY Philharmonic perform The Polar Express at Carnegie Hall. We had the best seats! First balcony right above the stage, so if they boys could lean over...carefully...they could see all the instruments and have a great view. Giacomo loved it, at one point he told me it was so relaxing. At the end of the performance all of the kids each got a silver bell, like the story. Then we went to see the spectacular Xmas windows at Macy's. A very nice day indeed :-)

Hanukkah - First Night

Breakfast with Santa

The Mall hosted a Santa Breakfast in early December. We had to be there at 8:00am, that's early on a Sunday. There was free breakfast from Burger King - gross. Dorian liked it. French toast sticks. It was hosted by Radio Disney, so there was alot of dancing, which Dorian loved, Giacomo not so much, and some crafts and games. It was fun, but Santa didn't come till 10:00am!!! By then I was just ready to get out of there. So sorry, no pics w/ Santa.

Gingerbread House

They made it......then 5 minutes later, they ate it!
