Hi, all.   We’ve had a great week here.   Off school and basically goofing around.   Mom and Dad promised us hockey lessons – but it was sort of a scam.  It was really little more than skating lessons.  No pads.  No hitting.  Heck, there weren’t even any sticks.  TT wasn’t having any of [...]

OK – I know it’s been a long time.   But if you haven’t added me to your blocked senders list in the meantime, thanks. No better time than the holidays to catch up with everyone — hopefully you all are in a forgiving mood, and have had a great Christmas holiday today. I think [...]

Well, I am now officially in search of a new title for my blog, as we have — once and for all — departed Jerusalem.   I think it’s fair to assume that I left my mark on a few places — a handful of schools, any number of parks, just about any functioning swimming [...]

Today is Leighton’s first birthday.   Happy Birthday Baby LeiLei! We’ve had a fun couple of days.   TT, Oliver, and I threw a party for him.   We brought out the tractor, and generally hung around having a good time.   For some reason, Dad took photos of us, and not the birthday boy… [...]

Greetings from England!  Mom and Dad packed us up for the school holidays this year and we flew out here earlier this week.  We left behind warm, Spring-like weather for the hail and driving, cold rain that is England in April…  But that’s ok – because this place is a three-year old boy’s dream.  In [...]

The great weather here continues, and my brothers and I have taken full advantage of the past week.   We went back to the beach on Friday.   Even Baby LeiLei got into the act on the swings. My brothers then got into tit-for-tat exchanges in the sand.   It all turned out ok — [...]

We’ve been back from the States now for a couple of weeks.  It’s taken us that long to (mostly) get over the jet lag, and get the chill out of our bones.   It was nice to be back — I had a great time at the Air and Space Museum with my brothers — [...]

Wow.  In the course of one week, we celebrated Christmas, my brothers’ birthdays, and went to the beach to ring in the New Year!  I don’t even know where to begin… So perhaps it’s best to start with the annual Christmas sweater wearing extravaganza, brought to us this year by Grandma.   You’ll note that [...]

My brothers and I had a birthday party today – in Jericho, at our favorite horse club.   It was my birthday this week — and the twins are still a month away from theirs – but I thought it would be nice to include them. It won’t surprise you that it was a green [...]
