Noah's Consecration and Temple fun

This spring was Noah's Sunday School Consecration.   Look how handsome he looks.  And how pretty Sophie and Mom look.

Congratulations Noah.  We're super proud of you.  This is just the beginning

Noah's class.  he's in the far right, sitting in the 3rd row.

Afterwards, we went with some of Noah's friends to Rita's for a treat.

With lots of silliness.

Silly kids, silly moms.

Then later that week was parent's day at Friends Central.  Noah's class is 3C with Mr Dubb.  They were studying American Indians.  Every day they sit around the Medicine Wheel for lessons, some incense, and meditation.

Meanwhile, at Sophie's school, her class took a trip to Israel.  Here they are at the Western Wall writing notes and placing them in the wall.

Wow, these 2 kids are growing up fast.  What special times.

Easter and Other Fun

It's Easter Sunday and we were getting ready to go out for Brunch with Grampie and Kay

Hey, look who joined us!

The kids had a mean Easter egg hunt and Michael, Andrew,  and Elana's house. 

Meanwhile, life goes on.  Sophie is getting quite good in her gymnastics class.

And she plays a mean T ball.

Sophie has only had her hair cut a couple times.  But she still loves it.  

Our 2 ballplayers!   More summer fun coming soon.  

Work and Passover

Sophie had time off at school, and came to work with David for the day.  She was all set for a busy day

She worked hard, and did a great job.

Breakfast in the cafeteria.

Her friend Emma was there the same day.  They needed their ears checked.

 And then before we knew it, it was Passover.  We went to Danbury to have a seder.  This is just a little snack before the seder.

A mean game a checkers.  2 against 1.

OK Hollywood!

What are you thankful for?

What a beautiful table.

Silly Mike!

Last day in Spain

This was our last day in Spain and we went to Tibidabo.  This is an amusement park at the top of the mountain overlooking Barcelona.  It was pretty cool.  You had to take a bus to a Funicular to get to the park.  Check out the views.

He is Sophie with Bi.  This is also Ti, Da, and Bo.

That's what happens when you don't listen to your mom and dad.

Didn't you learn from your brother??

What's a day at the amusement park without ice cream?

Coming

Going

That night we went to see the lighted fountains, then back to  have dinner near our hotel.

Our favorite little italian restaurant across from the hotel.  At the start of dinner

At the end of dinner, after a long day and long week in Spain.  What a great trip.  And Noah and Sophie were really good.  We were pretty proud of them.

One last breakfast before heading to the airport.  Noah had his usual; chocolate crepes.

And Sophie had her usual; a plate full of fruit, yogurt, churros, pastries, toast and cereal.  and didn't eat anything!

Bye Barcelona, and bye Mediterranean Sea

At the airport, lots of souvenirs, and ready to go home.

Except the airport was pretty hot, and the plane a little late!

Next stop.....

Home......It was a great trip.  But nice to be getting back.

Soon we'll be in our own beds!
