Giving Thanks

We have so much to be Thankful for this year. Our happy and healthy beautiful daughter. Our health, our family, our home, and so so much more. We spent our first England Thanksgiving in NYC this year, creating new memories, but not forgetting or loving the old ones. Enjoy the photo highlights of our quick trip to New York City!

Thanksgiving started with the Macy's Day parade. Matt and Ashlyn are in awe of the huge balloons.

Even with the ladder we couldn't see much more than the balloons floating through the air. It is quite a site to see.

Our first time Brining the turkey. It was salty, moist and delicious!


The family enjoying a feast the pilgrams would be proud of!

Nothing like some hugs from Madison to top off an amazing meal!

Uncle Matt makes a really good pajama party wrestler.

Friday afternoon we meet up with our friends Andrew (matt's college roommate) and his wife Crista for some yummy BBQ.

At the end of it all there is nothing like heading back home. Sometimes I am the most thankful for my own pillow and bed to sleep in.

Our trip also included a late night visit to the Rockefeller Tree, checking out the department store christmas windows, a little shopping and a broadway show. I forgot my camera that night though...bummer! We already miss everyone, but luckily will see the family again in a few shorts weeks for Christmas!
