And that happens every Christmas. December 1997 was the first time I went to New York City...with my sisters and my cousin Kim....OH MY GOD...it was such a wonderful, memorable trip. I look at a picture of us every single morning. (it's in my bathroom) -- because it makes me SMILE...
The tree was magnificent. Since that trip, every year when I watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade -- or the tree-lighting ceremony at Rockefeller Plaza -- I am snapped right back to those magical moments in New York City.. .spent with the women I most love in this world...and I AM SOOO GLAD I went whenever I had the chance. I have since learned how to ride the subway, and take a bus...
My cousin Kim loved New York so much -- she could hardly wait to take her daughter, Carrie -- and it was wonderful to see it through her eyes. (that trip was before I had a digital camera -- do you have pictures, Kim??)
The last time I was in New York City during Christmas was in 2009 -- when my sister Deborah took ALL HER GIRLS. I was their unofficial tour guide. And we had a wonderful, wonderful time. (I was learning how to blog -- so there were LOTS OF PICTURES.)...
My BEST Christmas present this year involved a maxi dress (duh!). And the Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center. AND a scavenger hunt....
I don't have any pictures yet -- but I AM HOPEFUL...and it's a great sewing story...
