On Our Way to Italy

It's Monday and we are back from Italy!  We had fun but we are totally exhausted!  I have so many pics to share.  Hold on...  Last Saturday, we had Julia's bat mitzvah.  

Beautiful sisters!

The party was at the synagogue like Ariel's.  Same caterer too.  

Ariel was our only kid invited.  

We had fun dancing but we were still not totally packed!

We left a bit early and headed home to get ready for Italy.  We were picked up at 5.

We went to JFK via the Verrazzaon Bridge.  

NYC!

It took about 2 hours.  

We got on to Italian Airlines around 10.  

We had like nine hours ahead of us until Rome.  

A late night lasagna dinner!

 

Jiffy Pop

Last Friday, I drove Ariel to school and there was a very creepy rabbit waiting for her.  

She was scared to pass the rabbit!

Eli printed a huge gorilla!

He's been wanting to try Jiffy Pop.  

Ok what’s taking so long?

It takes a longer time then I remember.  

Here we go!

Yum!

Ariel had lacrosse practice in the cold.  Have a great weekend!

 

Deer Crossing

Last Tuesday, I was at the gym and they opened their new studio.  It's a hot yoga studio.  Ugh.  I hate to exercise when I'm hot.  

It was a nice night.  We grilled.  

And watched the deer.  

Last Wednesday, Eli made French toast.  

Then he 3d printed a highland cow.  So cute.  

Last Thursday, I had to wait for the deer to cross before I could take the boys to school.  

After school, Ariel and I went for a long walk.  It was almost 80 degrees!

Eli was back on the swingset.  

Yay America!

Ariel tried on some outfits for us.  

Then showed us her new nails.  

Ariel and I watched the Godfather the other night.  This night we started the Godfather 2!

 

Back From Miami

Last Sunday continued. We left the Miami behind and drove towards my parent's place in Deerfield Beach.  It was about an hour's drive.  We got some pics from home while we drove.  The boys played out back.  

Then they headed back to the King of Prussia Mall.  They met the twin's friends at the Netflix House.  They played mini golf.  

They had fun.  

Passing through Miami.  

Aden actually wanted to shop so we went to the Town Center Mall in Boca Raton.  He's a quick shopper.  He walked into a few stores and he picked stuff right out and bought it.  He then wanted some cologne.  

There was a Bronco in the mall.  Where is Ariel?

That was exhausting.  

We met Mike, Erika and Maya for dinner at Lazy Dog in Boca.  Maya is a year younger than Aden.  He definitely found her cute.  

We passed through Mizner Park on the way to the condo.  

Ariel called to say goodnight.

Last Monday, we had to be out the door by 6:45.  We drove to Fort Lauderdale Airport.  There was a pretty short security line.  

We flew out over the port and saw 2 Disney cruise ships.  

From the sea to the everglades.  

It's crazy how civilization just ends at the everglades.  

We got home by early afternoon.  Ariel got to open her gift from LoveShackFancy.  

It was great to be home!
