we arrived at 333 around noon sunday. after some burgers at merrion square, we opened a few presents.

on monday we saw the 5pm performance of the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular. this is emma’s 3rd time to see the Show—not bad for a 4-yr-old.
tuesday was her school christmas program (no, grandma, it’s a show) and it was no surprise that she was such a terrific performer. what was a surprise is that she introduced the show, coming out with confidence to the microphone and saying clearly, smiling, “welcome to our christmas show”. she’s somethin’, that gal.

we opened more presents when we came home. she had bought grandpa some nice things at her school’s christmas shop and was so excited to give them to him. she tried so hard to keep it a secret…..
she loved all of her presents, of course…….

the next morning, she was off to school for a polar express pajama party, wearing her new pajamas, crocks and socks. we left just as she and melissa were heading out for school….
it was such a short time, but just enough to tide me over until february……
