New York!

my older sister kara and i have always wanted to go to new york and see the rockefellar tree at christmas time. maybe since we saw home alone movies when we were little. this fall we got tickets and planned at road trip! she is living in concord new hampshire right now so it was about a 5 hour drive. it was beautiful, we drove through Massachusetts, and then Connecticut, and then we stopped by new jersey on the way home. i loved it and was so happy we went and got to see new things. new york has always been at the top of my wish list of places to go. it was very cold and we rushed from place to place, but it was all worth it. we saw dylans candy bar, f.a.o. schwartz and lots of other things.

my new favorite pictures..

these first ones are my absolute fav! i love when avenue stands on the window sil and looks out. its so sweet to me.



these are some we took at my sister kara's house while we were visiting

a little bit of christmas

we put up our tree and it quickly became avenue's new favorite toy. all of the ornaments slowly migrated up towards the top of the tree and out of reach!

i put aveneues hat and gloves on and he was doing a weird dance haha

the beautiful salt lake temple, love when its lit up for christmas

watching the snow fall

our PUMPKIN

gardner village

family in town!

10*10*10
this year i was lucky enough to share my birthday with my family in town!! it was fun to spend a nice sunday at home with all the people i love and dont get to see everyday. so grateful they came to see us!

avenue LOVES his uncle JOSHIE! he followed him around and always tried to do what he was doing. very sweet:)

papa and gramma bought avenue a fire station and he couldnt wait to get it out of the box!

aquaruim

aaron and i took avenue to the aquarium in sandy to see the penguins. he didnt really care that much about the penguins. he liked the ones on the wall he could touch better.


he loved the star fish, he wanted to pick them up.



we had a good time but i think aaron and i were more excited to see avenue enjoy it, which i think he will more when he's older. he does say FISH-Y really cute tho!!
