Flat Juliette visits Pennsylvania and New York City

Oh the adventures we have had with Miss Flat Juliette… She arrived at our home on Friday December 18, just in time to welcome Becca home from college for the Christmas break. On Saturday she made the trip to Baltimore to pick Kate up at the airport.

Kate was arriving home from college in Colorado. Flat Juliette was a bit confused because she thought she was going to get to take a trip but she was thrilled to meet Kate.

The next few days we kept her busy helping the girls decorate their Christmas Trees and wrapping presents.

She thought this was great fun! Flat Juliette also helped us make our special Molasses Sugar Cookies. She really enjoyed this activity because she learned a few of the secrets that make these cookies so yummy… (Singing Christmas songs, dancing around, silly jokes, lots of laughter and lots of love!)


On Tuesday Flat Juliette got to join the family on a two day adventure to New York City. The day started with a train ride from our home in Pennsylvania into the city. 

When we arrived we checked into our hotel in Times Square and then set out to explore the sites. Some of the highlights… the Christmas windows at Macy’s Department store, shopping with Becca & Kate (she likes doing girly things), seeing the Empire State Building, the Christmas windows at Lord & Taylor, riding the subway, seeing Times Square and all the lights, the Christmas Tree and skating rink at Rockefeller Center, yummy food and best of all The Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall.  Whew! Everyone had a wonderful time and enjoyed sharing our Christmas adventure with Flat Juliette.


The next few days we were busy visiting with friends and getting ready for our family Christmas celebration. Flat Juliette enjoyed helping us cook, decorate, and celebrate. We think her favorite was eating all the goodies and yummy stuff but know she also loved helping decorate the table with all the pretty flowers.

Flat Juliette is now ready to continue her adventures… Where will she land next?
