An Epic Time!

 2026--here we are!  2025 ended with a bang!  Hersh went to Israel, Lu was a soldier in the Nutcracker, we hiked on xmas day, prepped for the Bat Mitzvah, took a quick trip to NY for Phish (the more things change, the more they stay the same) and just enjoyed being home.  It was so busy and so chill--so many days of fun and excitement with a mixture of nothingness---totally ideal!  Hersh had an incredible time in Israel--very meaningful, very hard, and very fun.  The Nova site and Har Hertzl cemetery really left an impression.  The kotel on Friday night and Machane Yehuda pre-Shabbat were the highlights---very very grateful! xoxo

Racing til the end!

 We're racing to the end of December, with so much each day--it's wild!  I truly have never been busier then I am these days--work, Nurture PP, 3 kids, bat mitzvah, swim meets, Nutcracker--on and on it goes--all such a blessing, but wow!  We started Hanukah last night--just the 5 of us and it was so lovely.  A frigid day outside, but cozy, warm, and festive inside.  Hersh got elected Gadol of Einstein AZA, Lu is bat mitzvah and nutcracker ready, and Sender is thriving.  Tomorrow evening I will take the big kids to Jingle Ball, then the Nutcracker will begin, and Hersh will head to Israel.  We'll sneak in a night of Phish, all before the main event--Lu's Bat Mitzvah!   What a wild ride!
