New York City...

On Saturday morning, PaPa and MeMe left to head back to North Carolina, and we headed into New York City to see some sights.

We started at Chelsea Market where the Food Network offices are located. On the ground floor are all sorts of food stores and markets.
You didn't know I started my own bread company did ya?
This vendor has over 20 different kinds of delicious balsamic vinegar you can sample and purchase, as well as different salts and olive oil. Ever tried dark chocolate balsamic vinegar?
I have officially fallen in love with crepes.
Making our Nutella crepe. As Rachel Ray says "Yum-o".
We all snacked on 4 different kinds of crepe - Nutella, Four Cheese, Ham, Pear and Brie and Cinnamon Sugar.
We have got some beautiful kids.
Next...Empire State Building. We dropped Michelle and the girls off so they could take a ride up. Looks like they had a beautiful view.
Grace (13), Claire (9), Sarah (11)

While they were at the Empire State Building, I enjoyed spending time with my two favorite guys at Rockefeller Center, Lego Store and Toys R Us.
The fall colors are so beautiful.
Brayden got to meet up with the Incredible Hulk (in Lego form).
After meeting up with Michelle and the girls we took them to the Rockefeller Ice Skating rink, which had just opened that day. What a special memory to say they have ice skated there. They spent about 40 minutes on the ice.

Last stop after ice skating was Dylan's Candy Bar. Two floors full of all kinds of candies and a special cafe on the top floor. Thanks to Aunt Michelle they each got a special container to fill with their favorite candies.

We all enjoyed the day and headed to a Jersey diner for dinner where Brayden drew for us his interpretation of Justin Bieber. I think it looks exactly like him. LOL!
