The Alte Lunar New Year!

 Upon finishing the Nutcracker and seeing Phish, we scooped Hersh up from the bus after landing at JFK, intercepting him at the rest stop in DE, and headed out to Bethany Beach for the Alte Lunar New Year!  Dec 30th and 31st consisted of setting up the hospitality suite, an amazing pre-getting-the-festivities-started dinner at Ocean View Brewery, making centerpieces, swimming in the indoor pool, greeting all of our loved ones, a snowy morning walk on the beach, and an absolutely epic polar plunge!  We then had "early pizza" sponsored by Uncle LoLo, and setup for our Alte Lunar New Year Karaoke Party!  It was incredible.  Hosted by Hersh and Lewes, everyone wore their best sparkles, shmoozed, sang, dance and ate.  It was so fun, joyful, and delish.  What a way to bring in 2026!

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
