Christmas Tree Adventures in NYC

Over the avenues and through the dirty bodegas to find our first Brooklyn Christmas tree. (We used to just wrap our bikes with color lights but now that we've got the kid and all we decided to do things right.) Here's Susannah and Ben wondering how we are going to get this thing home.



















Here's Dad braving the traffic on Seventh Avenue in Park Slope.



















Past the pretty brownstones and up the hill to our apartment. He didn't even complain, much to my surprise.



















We even upgraded to pretty white lights this year!



















Now Susannah's wondering where all the ornaments are. Grandparents, this is where you come in....

The tree looks great! Let me know if you want to borrow more lights or some ornaments - we have some glass balls and a santa topper. It would be nice to see them get some use since we're not doing a tree this year.

I am on it! Ornaments coming your way soon, and plenty for Susannah to tear off the bottom of our tree!

Great pics!

How did that girl get so cute? She is the Gerber baby (although her parents are too young to understand that is a compliment!). Can't wait to see her and her parents.
