Im not sure it will be a tradition for many years to come, but as long as we live in Utah, it its amongst our most favorite seasonal activity. Rosey, being just shy of 3 months proved to have my adventerous spirit and was a good sport the whole day. I almost cant believe we took all three to the city, but we had Aunt Kim with us this year, so my fears didnt linger long. After the red eye, we went to breakfast at big daddies in Gramercy Park. yum. This year we added the 9/11 memorial to our itinerary. It was amazing. Beyond amazing actually. I didnt anticipate being so emotional, but being there, in that beautiful plaza and talking with the volunteers who stood in the rubble that day, hearing first hand their stories, I was just in awe. It is a beautiful sight to see this tribute to the fallen with 2 huge new towers being built around it. And the survivor tree, I think I may have dropped a tear or two when I saw it. We hope we did an adequate job explaining to the kids what it all meant. In time, they will come to appreciate the time there (I hope). Moses kept asking us "can we PUH LEEESE go to new york now?" Thats when we realized "new york" to them, is Times square, FAO Schwartz and Macy's on 34th. So we went to "new york" and we had ourselves a super fun 15 hours in the city we've come to love at christmas time! Having said that, our beds NEVER felt so good. Thank you for another Fabulous trip jetblue!
Im so tired....photos will have to wait for another day.
