I adore this for so many reason. Your thoughtfulness in choosing gifts, appreciating subway art, toys (it shows in your children too). I love that you took us in some local shops. Those are always a treat to find when I visit NYC. How you happened upon a parade??? if that isn’t classic NYC I don’t know what is. And of course the American Girl store. My daughter is grown but visiting Chicago and letting my daughter pick out a doll is one of my core memories. Over the years she ended up with several. She had Kit and Addie & lots of their accessories. What a wonderful day. 🎂
I love that you always appreciate the architecture, skyline, nature/parks, subway & street art! Obviously NYC isn't perfect but I think people let that take away from how beautiful it is. I'm on Long Island & LOVE being in the city, I have many friends that hate it but we have everything that people don't like about NYC except for the subway. I feel like the beauty out weights everything else & I love that you embrace the everyday beauty you walk past that many overlook 💖
You are so very hip and cosmopolitan - you fit right in, in NYC / I guess from living in San Diego. My son lives in S Ca and he’s very artsy as well including his foods. I lived in the greater DC area, but I never got used to riding the metro and so many people! Plus you are up to date with all the latest. You remind me of my artist, interior designer, architect, engineer daughter - she loves and notices the details like mosaics - she would enjoy everything you looked at and admired and she loves to shop. So glad you could see the parade for a short time. My family went to the Macy’s Day parade. Your little girl is very smart like her mama. I enjoyed shopping from a distance. LOL. I came from small towns, but as a military spouse, I lived in many places and Europe, and have done some extensive travel, but the small town never left me. Thanks for the adventure.
I just love your hair Anna . Amber all your daughters have such gorgeous long Hair. Happy 9th Birthday Chloe I hope you have a joyous best day and sweet birthday wishes.🥳🎉🎉🎂🥳 Hi all Amber give Melody a big hug for me I just love❤ that sweet child. ❤🙏🙏
I enjoyed your shopping trip.I bought Bitty Baby and American girl dolls for my grand daughters.They are grown women now.After 7 great grandsons I have a great granddaughter.She is 3.So soon I’ll be shopping again.What a good day you guys had.Stay safe.
Loved the Scottish parade! I’ve purchased many Felicity dolls and her companion ( can’t remmber her name) 18th century dolls. Back when American Girl was new (er). What a fun outing! I loved seeing inside the little bookstores and boutiques. Im catching up ol okser videos. Still a bit new to channel.
That's very sweet! ❤ Happy Birthday Chloe! 🎉 It's amazing how you and Anna know a lot about those interesting toys. 👍 You and Anna looks so much alike, she's like a mini version of you so cute! 🥰 Love your vlog! ❤ Have a nice week!
Happy birthday 🎊🎂🎈🎁🎉 and I loved shopping trips with my girls when they was younger please 🙏 enjoy this time they grow up so fast and you will miss these days I sure do so Much
those dolls used to have a sense of history too commercial now. my daughter has the oringal dolls from the 80. thanks for sharing happy birthday chole.
Yes, I do miss the dolls from the 80s, they still have a few historical dolls but not as many. Still I appreciate the “girlhood” of the dolls. Barbies feel a little too adult to me.
Awesome video Awesome sweet dearest friends The Happy Caravan and Happy Birthday sweet dearest Chloe hope you have a fun and wonderful and Safe and Blessed Birthday today 😊❤️💕🎂🥳
Do you ever do any thrift store shopping for your family I'm thinking New York would have some excellent thrift secondhand stores! Thank you for your videos and letting us see Newyork!
You are such a cute bunch - stuff of what dreams are made of * - * You also remind me so much of the Captain Fantastic movie. Have you watched it as a family??
@@TheHappyCaravan yes, I think you would love it🙏🏻🍿 Maybe watch with your husband or just start with the kids 12years and older, because it does have the theme of death of the mother in the movie ❤️
How do you like living in New York City? Is it what you expected or totally unexpected? Good, bad, or just different? 13:24 I remember the little song for Monchichi commercials. It's forever stuck in my head. :D
Your family is brave staying and living in New York City. We left and never looked back. With the crime and outrageous cost of living it is not sustainable or safe.
I've recently watched one of your videos stating children should start early with piano/instruments etc. Did you have to look around very much for instructors that would take them young? I'm noticing a lot of places only starting at age 6
We had a Suzuki instructor in San Diego that allowed them to start early. But even if you can’t find that in your area there is a lot of instruction online to at least get started. That’s a new thing in the internet era.
hey, I just noticed your family claims to be Christian, but I just wanted to share the Gospel. you can try to be a "good person," but the Scriptures state that NONE are good EXCEPT for God, meaning that we can never save ourselves or earn our way to God or obtain a pass to Heaven by being "good." we can only be saved by the grace of God through faith in Him alone. we must turn from our sins and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. we must live for Him, denying ourselves, taking up our cross and following Him. you must be BORN AGAIN, transformed by the Holy Spirit of the living God. to be born again is to have a desire, a great and burning desire that consumes all of you, to serve Christ and Him alone.
Can you please do a sit-down chat where you talk to us about how you raised all your kids to be kind, compassionate and helpful? ❤
🙏❤️☺️
Did this already occur? I would love to know your ways!
@mdeasis11 No, but I think the music and homeschool really help!

Yes! Anna is such a boss🙌🏼😍☺️

Thank you!
Do you ever do any thrift store shopping for your family I'm thinking New York would have some excellent thrift secondhand stores! Thank you for your videos and letting us see Newyork!
Yes! Pearl is good at finding shops! I want to go with her. I haven’t found kids thrift stores here but maybe in Brooklyn? That would be fun.🙌🏼
I bought my granddaughter Mary Ellen. She is beautiful. I love her clothes.
Yes! And her hair is so cute too!🙌🏼
You were in my old neighborhood in the village and I’m now in San Diego in your old city!! 😎
So cool! Yes San Diego is beautiful too!🙌🏼❤️
@@TheHappyCaravan love your videos!! You have such a beautiful and talented family 🤩
If your other daughters have American Girl Dolls can you do a video showing them!
Yes! Naomi has Molly and Pearl has Samantha. They don’t have many accessories but they really love their dolls.
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday 🎉

Not yet but it sounds fun!

13:24 I remember the little song for Monchichi commercials. It's forever stuck in my head. :D
We really like it honestly, it can be a bit rough at times, but the kids love the environment. Yes those Monchichis brought back so many memories!❤️
@@TheHappyCaravan
Thank you for the reply back!
So close to 100k subscribers Wahoooo
Thank you!🙏❤️
Google earth will navigate no way to wrong direction if go wrong direction it will indicate old days we navigate by compass or map
Your family is brave staying and living in New York City. We left and never looked back. With the crime and outrageous cost of living it is not sustainable or safe.
I understand! We are newbies and are learning a lot!
@@TheHappyCaravan God is with you my dear. May angels encamp around all of you every step you take, in the name of Jesus.
I agree. I hope it doesn't become like Chicago. Left that dump during the pandemic and never looked back either!
I've recently watched one of your videos stating children should start early with piano/instruments etc. Did you have to look around very much for instructors that would take them young? I'm noticing a lot of places only starting at age 6

73.50 for the flower pressing kit?😳
Pretty sure you are near NYU
Yes! I saw NYU banners around. I’ve heard it’s a pretty cool school.
It’s bag pipes
Do you ever buy things online?
Yes! I guess the 90’s girl in me sort of misses the mall era so I like shopping out and about sometimes 😅
That dress would have fit because over what her sister was wearing it was only tight

Yes, all of us struggle. This is true! We can try but at our core “being good” is a nice goal but unattainable without Christ.
Why did you call things crunchy?? I know what it means.. Just use the appropriate vocabulary....
I think it’s a just a cute term to describe a health food lover, it just sounds less severe😅
Happy birthday 🎈🎂
