train show at the new york botanical garden





(such charming children)

we went to the train show on friday. it was magical. the kids loved the trains and i was dying over the plant buildings - they are masterpieces. lindsay joined us for the adventure, and it was an excellent adventure indeed. oh, the bronx, we heart you.

in other holiday news, our christmastime is going on quite nicely.
e&a just finished watching how the grinch stole christmas and now they're watching charlie brown. earlier we wrote letters to santa and fixed all the decorations a.soleil has been playing with while listening to a very she and him christmas. our christmas music collection is bulking up to something well rounded. i need to figure out what i'm baking for friends & doormen/women (what should i make?). other than that, the gifts are in the works or they're complete. i'm hoping to get to the post office on friday to ship things to family. we saw santa at our church christmas party. macy's santaland + 5th ave windows + the rockefeller tree is happening next wednesday. and, with the help of library books, we're going to do a little hanukkah celebration with our miniature menorah + candles and dreidels. plus, we also have tickets to the radio city christmas spectacular. i'm soooo excited! so!

we're feeling it! i hope you are too, friends. i hope december is bringing to you all sorts of magical things just the way you like them.

haphaphappy holidaaaaysss!!

I am officially jealous right now. You are in my FAVORITE place to be during Christmas time. AAAAHHHH! NYC at Christmas! I might just have to hop me onto a Megabus and come one day.

Wow, how beautiful!!! Those are really incredible!!! It sounds like you're enjoying a very well-rounded December so far. We still have to go see the Christmas lights at Temple Square!! That's the Utah version of Rockefeller Center, right? :-)
