The Holiday Vortex!!!


Mom said it best, years ago, when describing how the holidays come so fast and before you know it, its spring again! She was right! Ever since we got back from NYC we have been so busy! Between getting back into work and preparing for the holidays, we have hardly had time to breathe, much less post to a blog.

NYC recap: We had so much fun! It felt sooo good to get away for a few days! In fact, it felt so good, that we kinda rushed our first day there and did sooo much! The rest of the time we spent watching movies, relaxing and shopping. Best part? Pizza every night!!! Short list of things we did: The Met, Hard Rock, Central Park, Quidditch World Cup, Comedy Show, Times Square, Rockefeller Plaza, Nintendo World, American Girl Place, and many other stores! But the two coolest things ever were being on Good Morning America (seen on tv twice and got to see Josh Groban live inside the studio!) and sat in for a taping of the Jon Stewart show!

The only disappointment with this trip was the weather! I spent two weeks knitting for our trip and for what? 60 degree weather???? I was SWEATING!!!! That's right sweating! I was so looking forward to COLD. Oh well, the ear warmer definitely came in handy!! And I got a compliment on my husband's Domo gloves, someone wanted to know where he bought them ;)

Overall, we had an amazing trip! But its good to be home and getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Im so excited about this years gifts! I hope everyone likes them! Its more or less a sample of my knitting, with a little something nice to pamper oneself! Its not much, but I really wanted to make something for everyone in the family. And not knowing what people like when it comes to knitted items, I figured this would be best! Pictures to come (after xmas of course!).
