NYC

The weekend after Thanksgiving we head down to NJ for my family Xmas weekend celebration.  We decided to stay in NYC on Friday night and spent the day in the city on Saturday before heading west for a Sat night dinner and Sun extended family party.  All but Rory enjoyed walking around outside...it was crowded but lovely nonetheless. 

We wrapped up the day at the Museum of Natural History. Rory almost imploded when we walked into the Dinosaur rooms there. Wish I had taken some pics, but I didn't.  I seriously need a new camera.

Merry Christmas

We had a lovely and relaxing holiday weekend...Kids were thrilled with Santa's gifts and the Wii that Joe and I decided to throw in to the mix. 
New jammies...



Go Bruins!



Happy girl on Xmas morning...

An entire day of Lego building...Hogwarts by Shelagh and Lego Kingdoms Prison Tower by Rory.  It was a quiet and mellow day!

Old House Parts

While in Kennebunkport, ME we also stopped by a store called Old House Parts which is INSANE!!  It is a 3-4 story huge barn with old house parts organized by type.  I walked around mesmerized for a bit while Joe worked with the guy there to get some door knobs for the doors he's been replacing around the house.  Then, I got supremely bored and played games on my phone.  Look at these pics, though!  If only I was a "renovator".  I'm clearly not.

Stuffed Crepes for Breakfast!

Joe and I managed to squeeze out an overnight getaway before Thanksgiving up in Kennebunkport, ME.  It truely takes me only 24 hours to refresh myself.  Look at these beautiful breakfast crepes I ordered at a local diner type place.  They were stuffed with eggs, mushrooms and cheese...it was a basic flour sauce that wasn't all that great - thankfully I had it put on the side, but the crepes were heavenly!  I might have to make some this weekend...

By the way, I posted this picture in mid-November and never took the post out of draft.  I've been a huge blog slacker.
