Moroni and I went to NYC on Christmas - I guess living in the east has some perks. We got to see all the wonderful lights at Rockefeller Center.
It was funny, when we walked to The Center, Moroni thought that this was "The Famous Tree" - Boy how I am in LOVE!! After looking at all the beautiful lights we went to The Bryant Park market and had the chance to look at overpriced junk. The big thrill of that was coming home and warming up with a nice cup of hot chocolate.
My dad, stepmom, and step brother came over from CA to visit us during Thanksgiving. It was so much fun to have family here during the holidays!!! We went to DC and here are some lovely pictures of it:
Natural History Museum: VERY BIG...there is so much to look at - AMAZING!!
I think this was Moroni's favorite, but we only had about 2 hours in the Air and Space Smithsonian. He spent a lot of time in the simulators, and luckily the place was empty because everybody else was celebrating Turkey Day.
OK...you can all tell me...I am beautiful!!
When we went to the White House our president was taking a stroll on the lawn (we think) so this is a close as we were able to get. It was funny, once we moved on we heard that they opened up the square again - we basically have perfect timing.
It was wonderful to see the Lincoln Memorial. I actually had time to read all that he said - he was definitely inspired.
Here is an escalator. I know, I know, no one has ever seen an escalator before. However, I believe that this is the worlds longest escalator!!! It took us about 15min (no joke) to go up this thing. I will have to contact Guinness Book of World Records and let them know about the DC Metro Escalator.
