Julia and Jerry headed to New York City last weekend--Jerry's first time in the Big Apple. They stayed at Laura & Clarkson's and squeezed in as many sites and friends as possible over three days.
We were invited to a pre-Hanukkah dinner. I made a pre-Christmas turkey in our new oven. Also pictured is mom with her bells choir. 'Tis the season!
Julia and Benjamin went to Traverse City for a week; some of Julia's Holton friends joined as well. The Saunders were so sweet to host them. Mom went to New York to celebrate Sam and Nick's 30th birthday!
Julia took the train up to NYC to spend time with friends, including childhood bestie Jessie, high school friend Lia, and University of Leeds friends Aly and Nadira. 
We had a wonderful Christmas! Steven was extremely generous and thoughtful...most precious was my Tiffany's wedding band. The 16 ounces of foie gras and tickets to A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder in NYC came in tied for a close second! He is such a wonderful husband and father. Julia was pretty psyched about her Surface Pro 3, as well. We went over to Lisa and Tony's for a late brunch and then ended the evening with Pippin at the National Theater. Great 2014 Christmas all around.
