Spending Christmas Money in NYC

The kids had plans for their Christmas money. Elli and Amy wanted American Girl dolls and Adam wanted a Lego set. I made them wait until after we went to FAO Schwartz before they spent all they had. Elli snuck on the big piano.Adam searched the Lego section for his favorite set, but didn't find it. Even the Lego store didn't have it. It is a limited edition and we had to come home and order it.
So, we headed over to Rockerfeller Center to see the tree and ice skaters. The kids were pooped, so I ran into a store real quick while they rested here. You can see the disappointment on Adam's face at not finding his legos.
After I came back, we crossed the street to the tree. There were people EVERYWHERE! Lots of them! I think we ended up walking over 60 blocks, but the kids did OK. I can't say 'great'. There was a bit of complaining and blisters.
