Colors of the Rainbow

It's Thursday night and Amy is excited Grey's Anatomy is back on. We are relaxing after a successful Rosh Hashanah dinner here.  Look for those pics next week.  Here are some random pics from the week.  

Ariel's class was still doing colors all week.  Ariel and her boyfriend Dylan looked great in purple.  
I randomly checked Apple's website and there were phones available in Cherry Hill so of course I ran over there.  I didn't have to wait in that line because I reserved one.
It was a crazy scene.
 Just like that I had the phone.  A little better than the 10 hour wait my friend had last Friday.  It took an entire day to set it up right but Apple customer service is great and they got me through it.

Orange day!
Chillin' with her buddy Chloe after school.  And I mean chillin'! How is it cold enough to wear jackets already?

It actually got a little warmer later in the afternoon so we played outside.

 I guess it was Orange day at Aden's school also.


 Green Day!
 Ariel and Dylan's first date watching Thomas the Train.


 We brought over Eva the little house.

She loved it.  



Posing for pictures!
 Uncle Steve hanging with the kids.
 Everything goes right in the mouth.  
 So you might as well make it something good!

 Nice dinner.
 Hey, cousin Ariel, can I have some water ice?
 Why thank you!

Back in the Pool

Happy New Year everyone!  We have to get up early tomorrow for the kid's services at Shir Ami.  They are at 8:45.  Ugh.  At our old synagogue, they were at 10.  

Sunday morning, Ariel and I were back at swim.  
She remembered this place.
It's sooooo warm.
It's amazing what a difference a few months makes.  She is so comfortable in the pool now.  All smiles.
There's her buddy Nicky.
It's fun but hard to do at 9:30 on a Sunday.
My dad and I went to the Eagles game vs. the Redskins.  (are we still allowed to say Redskins?)

I don't know if that's cool or gross.
 It was fun having the telephoto lens with me this time.

 Jeff Laurie, the owner, sits right behind us.
 It's hard to see but that's a bald eagle that had just flown around the stadium.
 Kickoff!
 The third game in a row the other team got off to a huge lead.

 Wake up Nick!
 Well, he did and we took the lead!
 This was when Nick got knocked over by a cheap shot and there was a bench clearing brawl.  2 guys got thrown out!
 Nice view on the way out after a nice win.

Just a Small Announcement (or Two)

Well we finally made it official, it's on Facebook!  I posted it this afternoon and we have about 245 likes and 70 comments at this time.  Many people already knew but it's fun to see the reactions to those that didn't.  Most are like "no way!"  
Saturday afternoon was soccer game #2.  Whose idea was it to make them at 12:45?  When are we supposed to eat lunch?  When is Ariel supposed to nap?  Speaking of Ariel, she was excited to see grandmom and aunt Judy.
 Practice first.
 My new camera does great with action shots.

 Carly came too!  She scared Ariel for a second.
 I think my dad wants another dog.


 Kick that ball in Aden!


 These were all taken from the sidelines pretty far away.



 This is my favorite shot.
 Lilly and Ariel.
 Good game.

 Aden with his buddy Jake.
 Ariel let's Lilly carry her everywhere.
 Finn joined them too.
 Ariel got stung by a bee on her face!  She took it like a man and thankfully had no reaction.  It was her first sting as far as we know.
 Saturday night we had Ina's surprise birthday party at their friend's house in Hatfield.  Nice place.
 The basement was extra fun!
 Saw this in the garage.  Everyone keeps teasing me that I'm going to have to trade in the Porsche for a minivan.  Not happening.  Amy's car has three rows and we can always take 2 cars to go somewhere.  We had a minivan in Florida last week and it was convenient but it's just not me.
 The party host was a pilot and they theme was travel.
 Ina was surprised!

 Happy Birthday!!!
 Such a fun couple!

 The 2 of us (and babies) had a great time!
