Thanksgiving in Connecticut!

This was Jake and I's first holiday together being married! We were so excited to go back east and spend more than just a few days in Connecticut with my family. We were able to do a lot of fun things and I was able to show Jake a little more of Connecticut as well.
The Monday before we left, we took the train into NYC and spent the day just walking around and seeing a bunch of things. My two brothers, and sister n law Jen went with us! Jake had a few requests... but the number one on his list was a piece of Juniors Cheesecake... What can I say, my husband loves food :)


We were able to drive by our old house growing up.... Loved this house...
Jake and Jayden, Thanksgiving day. We went for a walk, and Jayden discovered leaves with Jake, and how fun it is to throw them in the air!

 Jayden was trying to smile for the camera.. I told him to show teeth.
All ready for bed!

He didn't like Santa.. but liked Rudolph!


 Jayden LOVED the dancing banana at Stew Leonards....He kept pressing the button!


 Connor was beyond tired at this point...

World Trade Center Memorial


Rockefeller Center, NYC... We missed the tree lighting by 2 days. We could have met Justin Bieber.. To bad... One day...

You can't go to NYC without experiencing Macys during Christmas time! This place is awesome!

 We went to the World Trade Center Memorial. It was pretty intense getting into the place...a lot of security, basically set up like an airport. It was kinda weird being there, especially because you could see the reflection of airplanes flying past...

Jake and I.. Times Square, NYC


My family at Times Square.. Behind us they were shooting a commercial.. a few weeks later Evan said he actually saw it on television.. We had the chance to be on it to..too bad!

Jake and I in front of the Bull... down on Market Street.

We were able to see and do a lot when we went to New York. Hit all the major spots, and by the end of the day we were all completely exhausted! Perfect weather, and perfect day in New York!
