Skating…Taking It Back

I grew up going to the Darien Ice Rink. I tried forever to ice skate. I wasn’t good. Not at all. So I gave up BUT I am so determined to have the little ones do it.  We took them today since we didn’t do it in the City. My boyfriend was great with them. By the end my girls got the hang of it without falling. I really want to push them to learn. It’s so fun and I always felt I missed out for not really learning. 

Some can do it. Some cannot. I think trying is the only way to know for sure. Hoping my girls can go at least once a month or take lessons. 

Rockefeller Center… Seeing The Tree

The crowds are insane. The traffic is nuts. Seeing the tree…

You can’t explain it until you see it and the kids eyes lite you and they loved every minute and it made it all worthwhile. 

It’s so magical! 

I am so grateful to be sharing my life with a man who is so adventurous and keeps us safe and is reliable. He’s more than I could have ever asked for in a partner. To be able to have these experiences with our children makes me fall in love with him over and over again. 

If you can get down to NYC do so! It’s so worth it. 

New York…Newwww Yorkkk…Empire State Building

There’s this energy I get there. Then again don’t we all? It’s amazing!!!

We decided to take the girls for the day. Growing up everything family visited from Italy we took them to

New York. We would visit the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island etc.  

I never realized how lucky I was to do that until I brought my own kids. It was my boyfriend’s first time too and it was magical!

We went up to the 80th floor and then the 86th to the Observatory. 

The view was insane. We even got to be there around sunset so the sky was gorgeous. There’s this calmness looking outside at all the buildings. 

If you have never been then go! It’s so worth it. Next we will take kids to the Statue of Liberty.
