Christmas etc...

Sorry that this post is late- it's been busy around here, plus we were without power for a day this week because of the incredible storm that has been hitting northern California- and that one day screwed our internet up! So now I am back, full force, and am ready to post pictures from our trip back to CT. It was possibly the best trip EVER. It could not have gone more perfectly. My parent's loved Josh and he fit right into my family. It was amazing. I knew it was going to go well, I just didn't think it was going to go THAT well :) We had so much fun. We took him to NYC for the first time, saw Rockerfeller Center, Central Park, Bryant Park, Macy's, the Temple and Lincoln Center, Radio City Music Hall to see the Rockettes, the Empire State Building and Times Square. It was a full day and by then end we were seriously pooped. We also took Josh to meet the Massachusetts family- he got to meet my Mimere (dad's mom)- and eat lots of yummy food. My family is all about the food- really it's the most important part of any get together. I also got to show him the old buildings at Yale where my family used to go to church when my dad was Branch President of the student branch there. That was really special for me because I haven't been back to see that building probably in over 10 years. I loved the time spent in that building- and it was exactly how I remember it- smells and all. Talk about sensory memory! So here are the pictures from our trip- Hopefully I will be better about blogging. The wedding planning is just a tad stressful. Anyone want to be my wedding planner and do it all for me? That would be great thanks...
