The Big Apple


It was off to New York City today! Super Hubs' sister, Elizabeth, met us for a romp around Rockefeller Center and Times Square. We watched the skaters, ate lunch at a little deli, shopped relentlessly, and even rode the subway. We were sad not to see any sewer rats, as that would have made this truly an authentic experience. But nonetheless, it was a fabulous day all around. We love New York!

Tonight the adults will take Mom out for a farewell dinner of some amazing form. A delicious vino is on my agenda.

Tomorrow we will leave pre-dawn for our marathon non-stop car trip back to Chicago; our mini-van packed to the gills with the 5 of us and all our Christmas loot. If all goes well, we should be home in a few short 14 hours. I simply cannot wait (she writes, toxic sarcasm dripping from the keyboard).
