The Zoo

A few weeks ago we went to the Zoo...
Us on a boat (teivat Noach)...

More boat...

We really didn't want to get off!

Tzviyali decided to wait downstairs...

One attempt at a family picture!

Still up there!

Another attempt!

Ima's favourite part of the day!

He came very very close..

eating..

eating...

more eating...that's about all we did there.

Sleeping Beauty

This is me at the end of a long day...although my hair is a bit messier usually...Ima had just put this in for the picture...

Getting sleepier...

Gone! "night night sleeping!"

Some funny faces around the house...

My Spiritual Sister

Yes, I am looking at her like she's nuts.

But really she wasn't davening, she was thanking Gd for giving her the pretend fish tank on the left.

Yes, she is excited about it.

Whatever...

Have we decided yet?

I was debating between being a Fireman or a Bunny...

But I decided that since I love bunnies- after all, they have been my favourite animal for a long time now- that I'll be one for Purim!

That is, until I decide tomorrow that I want to wear Gedalya's fireman hat...(that's why Ima bought two...)

Fire Marshall and Fire Bunny!

Here I am fixing my broken bed.



and here comes Fire-Bunny to help me.



Thank you Fire-Bunny!

A hard day of work is finally done.

Little Ima

Yes, I am wearing Ima's hat...

Just try to ignore the drool all over my shirt.

It's almost Purim, but here are some Chanuka pics...

Ima has no excuse for this, but here are some pictures she found of my Chanuka mesiba at gan!

Merkaz HaRav- One Year Ago

One year ago something terrible happened around the corner from our house (see the video on the bottom). Last week a very generous person donated 8 Sifrei Torah in memory of the 8 kedoshim who were killed while learning Torah. It was a very moving event for Ima and Abba...

You can see the students and Rabbis dancing in the streets with the Torahs...

I enjoyed the light show...

see?

Here is a beautiful video:


PS- Ima and Abba are very proud of the MMY girls who took the initiative to organize the fixing of the sifriya at Merkaz and the organizing of this event called B'Lev Echad.

Tzviya wins hot-dog eating contest! VIDEO

No explanation needed. But then she takes a break to swallow. She certainly loves the hot-dogs!

Being Ima

Real time- these pictures are from 8:00 am, Wednesday morning.
Being Ima is hard work. Here we are waiting for our muffins, all ready for gan.

Nothing is abnormal here...We wear Ima's tichels all the time...

Tree Planting and Bamba- Video

How could you have any activity without Bamba? Gedalya very articulately tells us how trees grow and Tzviya asks for Bamba!

Gedalya's rendition of Hashkeidiya

(Notice Gedalya knows all the words and Tzviya does "tzipporim" with her arms and she also says "again")

Tu B'Shvat, February 09

This is a picture of our tree that we planted for Tu B'Shvat (and some more pictures). Ima doesn't have pictures of Tzviyali un-planting it and then me re-planting it again. In the end, the tree got planted and we managed to escape from ants too. We had a good time! "Tree planting is fun"- Mr. G

Hashkeidia Tu B'Shvat Song- More versions

Here we sing while pulling up our socks...


Here we sing while jumping...





And how could a song be complete without Thomas the tank engine there!

My little archaeologists!

Ima and Abba! There's no time for a picture! This is serious work!

I won't let go of this brush...la la la...I'll never relinquish it!

Ima, who's having more fun here, me or you?

Four Generations

This is a nice picture of us gals!
