After the rain...

After almost a week of overcast skies, cold weather and rain, we enjoyed some time outside yesterday

Weekend Wedding Pictures

We spent the weekend celebrating the wedding of our cousin Bret to Becca. It was an amazing weekend and we enjoyed spending time with family. We stayed in a downtown DC hotel and went to the rehearsal dinner at Old Ebbit Grill, spent time by the pool, hung out with family and attended the wedding at a beautiful historic synogogue and the reception at the hotel.

Congratulations to Becca and Bret!! We love you.

Welcome Baby Fuddie!! And, the first day of school....

Baby Fuddie was born last week and she and her mom are both doing very well. The kids were very dissappointed to learn that Teri decided to give her little girl a new name - Hollie Rose. We were able to visit Hollie and Teri in the hospital and then again at the house yesterday. The kids were thrilled to have a chance to hold their new baby cousin and can't wait until she can get up and play with them.

Today was the first day of school. Sela is now in the 3s at Bet Yeladim with Nathan's former 3's teach Miss Ellen. She was very excited to get dressed up for school this morning and even tried to sneak on the bus with Nathan!

Nathan was in a very silly mood this morning. He chose to wear his new Indonesian soccer uniform my coworker brought back for him rather than the nice new clothes we had picked up, but he was happy!

Here is my big boy getting on the bus for his first day in his new school! He certainly was brave!

Soccer Camp

Nathan went to soccer camp last week and had a great time. Mom took a few pictures:

Can't wait for the regular season to start!

Great vacation...

We had our family staycation last week. It was great being able to spend 9 uninterupted days together with no plans or obligations, no where we had to be and nothing we had to do.

We spent a lot of time at the pool - THANK YOU AUNT SHERRY AND UNCLE SAUL!! We went to the children's museum, to Dave and Busters to play games, saw a movie and ate lots of popcorn, visited with an old friend, and went to Dutch Wonderland, a terrific amusement park for kids.

So sorry that our time had to come to an end, but we are looking forward to the start of school in a couple of weeks!!
