NYC: A Simple Story Part Deux

If you missed it, yesterday I shared part one of my Simple Stories album about our visit to NYC for American Thanksgiving.

And on to today.

A little Thanksgiving football- Jets vs. Patriots. And our first tailgate party-complete with Turkey and all the fixings. It was epic.

I used a little velum speech balloon to do a little journaling about the game. It was a bust and the Jets lost-like by a lot.

And then we shopped. Well, correction- I shopped. At Macy's. At midnight. Yep. Bucket list item. It was pretty cool and I got some really great deals actually. It still needs a little journaling.

I couldn't get over some of the store displays-two of my fav were J. Crew and Anthro in Rockefeller Plaza. I used tiny Lily Bee stickers to identify each display.

And then we traveled to Brooklyn. It was as cool as I expected it to be.

More little letters and I love the little wood veneers with the phrases on them.

MOre Brooklyn. We visited the Brooklyn Flea & happened upon the Brooklyn Art Library. They have the coolest project there-the sketchbook project.

A lot of love for the Brooklyn Art Library. It was perhaps the neatest library. I would have stayed for ages just exploring the sketchbooks.

And then there were the decorations. This city gets decked out for the Holidays. It truly is magical.

Tomorrow I'll be back to share the window displays and more. Oh the window displays. They are stunning pieces of work.
