Shen Yun

This weekend mom and Nick went into New York City to see a performance of Shen Yun.  We saw beautiful dances that depicted Chinese stories.  Nick was very good during the show, mom was very happy that Nick was such a good boy and seemed to enjoy the performance.

Here are some pictures from our day.  Nick had a picture of the advertisement so we knew where we were going.  In the morning we could see the buildings of New York from the train.  It was very cold in New York, Nick did not want to pose for a picture in Lincoln Center.  Nick enjoyed the train ride home and was very contemplative when we rode over the bridge and into Long Beach station.

Happy New Year!

This year Nick took his own selfie!

Christmas Tree Outside

Today was the day we marked on our calendar, to put the tree outside. 

Last night Nick sat on the couch to enjoy the lights for the last time.

Today we took off all the decorations and put them in boxes in the attic for next year.  Now the tree is outside. 

Nick said, "December Christmas Tree."

Mom said, "yes, next year we will have a new tree."
