A's Minnie Mouse Birthday Party!

A big June event in our house was Achinoam's Minnie Mouse 3rd birthday party. She requested it be a Minnie Mouse party since she loves minnie (for some reason which we still can't figure out). 

So naturally, like any good mother, I stayed up till the wee hours making decorations. Luckily the cake wasn't too difficult- and tasted amazing!

To top it all off, we got her a huge bouquet of balloons, which she was ecstatic about. See below- she had that smile plastered there the entire party!

So did Tzviya, by the way.

She got Minnie as a present- loved it~

Tzuri had a blast too!

Abba also enjoyed himself! 

Here are the rest of the pictures. Enjoy the party!

New Sabba and Savta's Visit

One highlight from last month was 'new' Savta and Sabba's visit. It's ALWAYS fun when they come to visit.

There are usually some surprises...

In the form of making stuff and playing with things, and there are always lots of smiles. 

We hope to see you soon Sabba and Savta!

Going to the FINALS!!!!

This has been a big week for Mr. G. On Thursday he and his team won 2 soccer games and tied 1. They got into the finals and are playing this week for the trophy! Last Sunday he won his purple belt in Judo. What an accomplished young man! 

My Camera was Stolen

I usually have no excuse as to why I haven't updated this blog in ages. But this time it's real, I promise! My camera was stolen recently so I'm using older photos, but I think you haven't seen these yet and they are really cute, so it's ok. 

We took these at migdal afek, a castle close to rosh haayin. The kids had a blast and it was only a couple hour tiyul!

A bunch of kosher hams...

And this was the last photo with my sunglasses which were also stolen. I'm taking donations towards buying new ones, by the way.

Lovely picture with Abba from the second floor!

I also want to say happy birthday to Achinoam this month and mazal tov to Arieli and Chava on their upcoming wedding! We're so excited!

I also want to say thank you to Abba (Sabba) and Ima (Savta) for my new camera. I hope this blog sees many new and wonderful pictures from it...

Coffee with Achinoam

There is no excuse for my chubby pics here, I'm just sitting funny. Now that I got that out of the way, this is how I spend some mornings with Achinoam. Notice our matching coffee cups! *Her cup has Ovaltine in it. Why am I wearing sunglasses on my head? Achinoam put them there! Now off to the gym!

Gedalya's latest commercial

Yesterday Gedalya did another commercial and we are so proud of how brave he was and how much fun he had, considering it's not all fun and games folks! Seriously, we don't know how much longer we'll be doing the acting thing, but for now, it's just fun. Look out for him on a TV near you!

Tzviya's Party for Yom Hamishpacha

Tzviyali made us a lovely picture...

She got the courage to get off her chair and dance!

hmmm...

"Stop taking pictures Ima!"

Ode to Tzviyali

We went on a fun afternoon to Yaar Kuleh- Here is my post about it. We had a blast and I can tell you that Tzviya was in heaven. To quote her, "Ima, I want to live here!" 

Cohen Kids Sandwiches are the BEST!

There's lots of YUM here!

Rainy Days

It's raining outside these days (what a blessing!) and I say outside because although our building has been flooded a couple times in the last week, we do not need the protection of these umbrellas indoors. Even so, apparently in Cohen Land, one doesn't need an excuse to open up an umbrella. It's just fun.
