Mahjong Social Club

Last Thursday, Ariel was being silly with her new penguin.

I was supposed to go out to a concert.  I didn't realize how bad it was outside.  

The roads were covered and the snow was coming down hard.  I just turned around and went home.  

Eli played with his new toy.  

Last Friday, I woke early to the deer playing in the snow.

Lucky they have their winter fur coats.  

During the day, Amy played mahjong with the girls.

Then they put on their matching Mahjong Social Club sweatshirts!

Later that day, I was a the gym.  It was so cold and snow outside.  If you look closely, you can see there is someone in the outdoor pool!  Crazy!

That night, we all watched the new Star Wars series together.  Have a great weekend!

 

Aden is a Licensed Driver!

It's Wednesday night.  It's still stupid cold.  Last Tuesday, I wanted to take a nap after work but I was interrupted by a big, fuzzy girl.  

So we moved downstairs.  

The girls played with the twins.  

Gwen liked the fort the boys had built.  

We love our visits from Honey.  

Last Wednesday, Mark sent a picture from the Colts stadium.  He had work in the building.  Cool!

It was a big day for Aden!  He took the driving test!  He had an appointment for as soon as he was allowed.  Six months after getting his permit.  He used his driving instructor's car.  

The first thing he had to do was parallel parking.  He did it well but forgot to use his turn signal.  Great way to start!  They then drove off through the parking lot and I couldn't see anymore.  

He passed!  He was so excited.  I'm not sure how I feel.  It was nice having the appointment.  we didn't have to wait to get the license.  

He wanted to celebrate at his favorite place Grandma's Grotto.  

That night, I played mahjong online and won a game!  Amy was so proud.  

The twins made me pay $20 to rent Wicked.  It was late and they could only watch a little.  I haven't seen it yet.  

 

Pickleball Lessons

It's a very cold Tuesday night.  It's like 10 degrees.  It was painfully cold all day.  Back to last Monday.  Ariel got an invite to a bat mitzvah.  It's starting again.  

Eli went with Paul and Dylan to take pickleball lessons!  Eli did well.  

Noah and I did the Mark Rober science box.  

We had 2 3d printers running.  

I actually dusted off and got back to my Pac Man Lego that I hadn't worked on in a while.  

Ariel played Monopoly with Noah.  

Eli got back to fort building.  

I clean up and they mess up.  It's a losing battle.  

 

Sunday with Bradley

Last Sunday, Eli flew the drone.  What happened to all those mysterious drones that were everywhere?  

I went with Aden to Philly for the Eagles playoff game against the Packers.  

For once, it wasn't a bad drive.  

The weather was decent!

The parking lots were full of tailgaters.  

Everyone following us into the stadium.  

I ran into one of our South Philly friends Mike.  

Pre game warmups.  

Aden and I were ready for the game!

We sent this in to be posted on the big screens.  

The flag was huge.  

Let's go!

Bradley Cooper behind us in the brown was ready too!  

The moon came out.  The Eagles were rusty but they were able to hold off the Packers.  

The Eagles were raising money for the people affected by the fires in LA.  

Right Bradley?

On the way out there were fireworks.  

Woo hoo!

We sat for over an hour in the parking lot.  That sucked.  

It was chaos!
