The Little Red Lighthouse.

Nestled along the Hudson River and under the George Washington bridge sits a little Red lighthouse. It is one of the smallest lighthouses that I have ever seen. I have heard about this lighthouse from fellow New Yorkers including this book and have been wanting to see it forever. So last month before Lexie left on her mission decided to go and check it out! Since we drive into the city we parked nearby, and there is a pedestrian bridge where you can walk across and it was only a 15 minute hike. There is a tunnel and a bike trail that leads you straight to the lighthouse.  

And it is so tiny! 
We had a nice time capturing moments together as a family, and I took individual photos of the kids so that I can look back on the time these kids were still kind of young. The girls had too much fun taking selfies together. I imagine they were taking advantage of capturing so many together since Lexie will be gone for 18 months! Although it was freezing cold we managed to have a great time! Sierra even captured a few random moments of us too! It was hilarious.  

We even had a nice couple from Texas of all places take a picture of us. This will be the last picture of all of us together for a while so if you see it on our Christmas card this year great, if not well here it is! Nine months early! 
I mentioned in the beginning about a book written about it and the book is called  "The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge" 
It is such a sweet book and because we love lighthouses bought it. You can also read the history of the lighthouse here...
What a fun day spent on a cold winters day under the George Washington bridge! Definitely coming back in the spring to venture out and walk on the trail and ride our scooters!
