Turkey and New York

Thanksgiving this year was a little different for us. Instead of going down to Iowa or Missouri, Cortney's parents flew us and Nick (Cortney's brother) out to Pennsylvania to spend Thanksgiving with their Aunt. Cortney's parents drove the painful 19 hours! We flew into Philadelphia and had a 2 hour drive to Cortney's Aunt's house. She lives on the side of the Pocono Mountains and has the most breath taking views. Here are some pictures from her house: Thanksgiving day the women spent all day preparing for a meal for 30 people! Cortney's Aunt works with some people who live in Germany and were stuck in the U.S. for the holidays. We had several employees as well as lots of her friends joining us for Thanksgiving.

The day after Thanksgiving we went to New York City! We had tickets to see the Rockettes live at Radio City Hall for their Christmas Spectacular event.

The Rockettes!

After the show we took a bus tour around the city since we only had one day in the city which is not enough time to see everything. The bus picked us up in Times Square and stopped at the Empire State Building, Macy's (The largest Macy's in the world), China Town and Little Italy, Soho, Greenich Village, World Trade Center ... ect. We only got off at China Town stop and did some shopping and also at the Rockefeller Center stop. You could see everything from the bus, plus waiting for the buses took forever so we only got off twice. We also got the famous hot dogs and a slice of New York style pizza! Here are some pictures from the bus tour:

All in all it was an awesome trip!

In baby news, we had another appointment yesterday. It was just a regular check up to go over the ultrasound we had a few weeks ago. The doctor was very pleased with everything and said Cortney's weight and other stats looked perfect.

And lastly, we have put in an offer on a house! We just had our inspection and are back negotiating some more to get some money to do some minor repairs. We are suppose to close on December 22nd so keep your fingers crossed. Here are a few pictures from our inspection ... the people who lived here before were definitely wall paper fans!
