Leslie wishes you all a very merry Christmas from NYC!
Have YOU ever seen New York during Christmas time? :lights:

Since one set of kids lives in Lower Manhattan across from the hole in the ground, yes, we see it every year. We go there for T-day and they come here for Christmas cause they are :hanstar:. And I have to have a :bigtree:

:bigxmas: Hi nope I’ve never been to New York ever. My grandma grew up there and loves New York I’ve heard many stories about how great it is “back East” we are hoping to take a trip to New york this summer we have a weding to attend in PA.
Merry Christmas :bigtree:

I would love to see New York for the holidays. It looks so amazing.
A couple of weeks ago I won a Amazon gift card from the Plotmonkeys. I used it to get the first book in Leslie’s Black Cat series. The book was so good! I couldn’t put it down. The bad person was a real surprise. This book was so good if you haven’t read it yet your missing out!

I have never seen New York.
I bet it is a sight to see at Christmas time. :lights:

I would love to go to New York one year for Christmas. My sister and her husband went to New York a couple of weeks ago and loved it. I went to New York when I was in high school, but haven’t been back yet.

Hey Les, I hope that you are having a blast in NYC for Xmas. I lived there for long enough to know how beautiful it is, but you know what? I never did the touristy (sp?) thing. It was always too crowded. To be perfectly honest, I never even went to the lighting of the tree or saw people skate at Rockerfeller Center. I hope to do that one day. I think experiencing Christmas there as an adult will be wild. Enjoy your time there, be careful and soak up a lot of that holiday spirit for the rest of us okay.
Peace and love,
Paula R.

Happy Holidays to all! Husband has seen it, and says it’s wonderful! :bigxmas: :ccane: :snowfight:

Hey guys, just checking in from the (pricy) Internet connection in the hotel lobby. So far, so good, all is fabulous. A few hiccups–our first train was canceled yesterday so we did a bit of sweating. But we made it.
We went to see Next To Normal last night–AMAZING show. We all just loved it every bit as much as we thought we would.
Now we’re off to do the touristy sightseeing thing.
Hope everyone’s having a wonderful holiday season!

Hey Les, glad you made it there safely. Definitely take pics of everything so that we can live vicariously through you okay. I am actually going to be in NYC this Christmas as well, to see my family. Rockerfeller Center is a blast, as seen on television, but it is best to go at night.
Peace and love,
Paula R.

Never been to New York at the holidays. Only been through there once when I was around 15 or so.
It always looks so pretty on tv and in the movies. (lol inside joke to myself)
We finally put up the :bigtree: last night. My 9 yr old put it together while I was at the nail shop. He did it last year too. What a man of the house. DH could take some lessons from him.
Have a great day everyone. I will be braving the stores after work and eye doctors. *sigh* Kinda tired of these long days.
Comment
I was there two weeks ago. It’s so beautiful and gets you in the holiday mood. But I could never live there.
Comment
I’ve never seen NY dressed up for the holidays. I bet it is spectacular.
Happy Holidays :bigxmas:
Happy Hannukah :Han1:

Merry Christmas! I lived in NY state for 18 years and barely ever went to the city… I think I am the only one in my family that did not go to the city for Christmastime… :bigxmas: :ccane:
Comment
:bigxmas: Leslie, I hope you and the family are enjoying your Christmas trip to NYC. I’m sure the decorations are spectacular.
I’ve never been to NYC. I’m not sure I am cut out for the east in winter! It looks lovely but cold!
:meepcold: :SmallSanta: Dreaming about a white Christmas & experiencing it are two different things. The year I spent Christmas in Colorado with my daughter & her family there was no snow but it was cold! Brrr! Christmas in my part of the world is likely to sunny & in the 60’s or if Mother Nature is being unkind it rains (usually when the kids get new bikes!). :santalights: :wreath: :ccane:
I need to go get myself into busy mode as I have lots to do. My Christmas is tomorrow!! Yikes, I still have baking, wrapping & cooking! That also means clean up and no goofing off.

:bigxmas: Have never been to New York.
Hope you and your family are having a great time!

I was there in the summer, though have considered a winter trip around this time of year. And ya’ll got to see it under a blanket of snow! I bet it’s beautiful! Enjoy!!!!

Comment
Yay, you made it, Leslie! I hope you’re having a fantastic time!
As for NYC during Christmas… yes unfortunately :X My entire [immediate] family got sick… and I have a lot of extended family there and it was all just… random. Hectic. We never did that again
Comment
I’ve never been to New York either but I would love to one day.
Comment
Yes I have 2 yrs ago. The stores and streets were decorated beautifully. It was nice seeing the tree. But it was freezing cold; we did the bus tour of downtown. Don’t like the crowds tho’ but you have to make sacrifices. LOL.
Comment
No I haven’t but I bet it’s beautiful and I would love to see it.
Comment
We didn’t go in this year to see the tree but have in the past. You need to go to Time Square and the Toys R Us store and ride the ferris wheel, it’s so much fun. Have a safe & fun trip.
Comment
Never been to New York, but would like to someday, especially at Christmas and New Years.
