Thanksgiving Fun

So this year we broke tradition and did a repeat of Thanksgiving. We had spent the previous 7 Thanksgivings in a different location, but this year we spent in in Connecticut again. We wanted to take a daytrip down to NYC on the day before, but with a big snow storm coming that day, we ended up heading down to NYC on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. It was quite cold but sunny and no snow! We enjoyed the fall leaves for the last time that season.


How Kaylee spent the whole day!

We spent the day in Central Park, the Natural History Museum, Shake Shack, Levain Bakery, Times Square, Rockefeller Square, The ToysRus & Disney & FAO Schwarz stores. Tyler pushed the big kids in our umbrella double stroller and Kaylee stayed asleep in the wrap for most of the day.


We had to get Levain Cookies!

Look closely to see Tyler and the kids on the ToysRus Ferris Wheel

Kaylee said, "seriously, you're going to just nurse me here on the floor in Toys R Us?" - yep, sorry!

Times Square with KayKay

All 5 of us!

In Rockefeller Square

The subway ride back to our car, we park in Queens

When we got back home, there was a heavy snow warning in affect and it was no joke!


Before I showered, and after :)

By Thanksgiving morning there was enough to make a snowman!

We spent Thanksgiving with some of our Avon Ward friends - With the Giffords, Morris', Swensons, and Mumfords - it was a big group! We didn't honestly contribute to much to the meal - just the green beans, fruit, and a pumpkin pie. I guess that's what happens when you coordinate with 5 families haha.

The crazy kids table!

The easy going baby, decided to cry the whole time during the meal haha

Home with grateful kids and full bellies :)
We had a great day and a yummy meal :)
