today...

we had an amazing afternoon in the city.  we went to the radio city music hall christmas spectacular featuring the rockettes and it was so fantastic.  craig spent a few christmases in this area as a child and every year his uncle would take the whole family into the city to see the rockettes christmas show.  he loved it so much that we decided to make it one of our holiday traditions.  it was fun to get dressed up and the boys' christmas sweaters got here just in time.  radio city music hall was so grand and beautiful.  they even had a santa set up to take photos with so we took full advantage.  santa told us to leave him some cookies and he made a special request for some eggnog spiked with a little somethin', somethin' and i told him we would deliver so now i need to make a trip to the liquor store.  good thing there are about 5 of them within walking distance.


here we are waiting outside before the show..
here are the boys with santa... 

 and here is the whole gang...
merry christmas!

I haven't posted many comments lately, but I just love reading your blog and looking at the pics. The boys are already so much more grown up than when you lived in Utah. Time flies! :-)

You can tell by the big smiles on your faces just how fun it was--what a fun tradition!

Memories...Actually the "event" alternated between the Big Apple Circus and RCMH. I loved them BOTH and couldn't wait until the next year!

It looked like such a wonderful evening. I'm seriously waxing nostalgic...

You're great parents!
