I have so much to catch up on but instead of trying to do it all at once, I’m going to do a little at a time. \u00a0We came back from our winter trip to NY and to Anguilla on Friday night. \u00a0We had an incredible time. \u00a0We started out in NY and had a very special day with grandma and papa. \u00a0We went in early, saw the tree at Rock Center, walked along the beautifully decorated Fifth Ave and then went to an early dinner near Lincoln Center. \u00a0After dinner, we went across the street to see the Nutcracker. \u00a0The ballet was magical and Ella was mesmerized. \u00a0After the ballet, we had a very special backstage tour by one of papa’s patients who is in charge of all of the children in the ballet. \u00a0She runs the ballet school for the New York City Ballet. \u00a0She was so wonderful and welcoming and Ella experienced the magic of being on the stage at the Nutcracker. \u00a0She had a once in a lifetime backstage tour. \u00a0I took a lot of pics! \u00a0On Tuesday, we went to KK’s to celebrate the first night of Chanukah and to see KK, Jordin, Kevin and Twyla. \u00a0It was a really sweet night. \u00a0On Wednesday, we left for Anguilla…I will post those pics tomorrow.<\/p>\n
