New York, New York...


Brooklyn Bridge
I am pretending to be tall...well pretending to appear tall...Nissa is helping with that endeavor by ducking just a smidge...such a good friend!!! This was by far the coldest day, but don't worry, the brisk walk across the bridge kept us toasty.


The Met
Definitely a highlight among a trip full of highlights. The Met was all that I had hoped. I wandered with my headset for almost 2 hours and could have easily camped out for a few dozen more!


Rockefeller Center
Definitely one of our more touristy moments, but what is a trip to the Big Apple without a few moments of cheese? If you look close you can see the skaters down on the famous rink!

It's Fall and for the George's that means Pumpkin Time!


So right about October 1st (maybe even a little before) we...and by that I mean "I", get pumpkin fever! So as soon as it is seasonally appropriate we head off to the patch. This year we got to go with Gracie, Shannon, and Aunt Laurie..There were goats, chickens, pigs you name it! Fun was had by all, except one really sad chicken.


Can you tell this little man has seen Peter Pan several hundred times?


Our annual pumpkin carving party celebrated its 5th anniversary this year. The boys have grown up with this tradition and we love it. Seen here is Jack and Silas...Jack wasn't around for the first party and Silas has been at all of them!


Jane got in on the Pumpkin Fun....


This little man worked hard on the "Scariest Pumpkin Ever"
