Yom Kippur 2009

For Yom Kippur, we headed to NJ to visit Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Dave, and Great Grandma Irene. We had a good time, spent more than an hour in synagogue and were a big hit at break fast, where we charmed the "crowd." Here are some pictures from our weekend:

"This is a fun park!"

"Grandma Irene, your magic chair is the coolest!"

"Uncle Dave, look at this neat Giraffe"

"Mama and Daddee!"

"See Grandma Irene, I told you the Giraffe was tall."

Rosh Hashanah 2009

We were in Pittsburgh for Rosh Hashanah this year and had a good time. Lily ate a ton (okay maybe a quart) of chicken soup and loved seeing Papa and Grammy.

"Mommy!"

"You're a good reader, Aunt Rachel"

"Read more to me, Papa J!"

"Can we come and play at Aunt Shelly's again?"

Maryland Football 2009 (v. JMU)

Yesterday, Maryland pulled out a to close for comfort win against James Madison University. As we did last year, we have season tickets to the Terps. We started the evening tailgating with friends. Lily had a great time walking around the tailgate, and eating strawberries, cheese, and cookies.

"This tailgating is fun! Did we do this last year?"

"Cookie!"

"Dad-dee, these people sure are having fun"

"Maryland isn't playing very well, I'm worried that they might not win!"

More Cute Pool Pictures

I'm sitting here bored in a meeting with Jake's laptop... so here are some cute pics.

JCC Pool

On Saturday, we went to the JCC pool for the last time this season. Lily had a great time. We might have find an indoor pool to play!

Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?

A dramatic reading by Sarah and Lily:

And it case you're wondering, the reason Sarah is reading is because that's currently the only way we can get Lily to brush her teeth. (She won't let us near her with a toothbrush... so don't suggest that we brush them for her.)

Back to Work

Well, it is officially the end of the summer. Sarah has started at her new school, I am back to work, and Lily is back to daycare. Before she could go back, Lily had a little paperwork that needed finishing.

"This work stuff is hard!"

"What is wrong with this mouse?"
