Home

We made it home safe. The city in not so bad, tough it is hard to get around, it will be a while before the snow clears.

Thank you all for a lovely time.

Europe pictures

I uploaded some of my Europe pictures, though there is a weekly limit so the rest will be up next week. And next weeks pictures are more interesting in my opinion, I go into ex-commie territory. Anyways here we go, they are all in reverse chronological order because flickr made me. Descriptions on pictures contain some story material.

It's snowing

It's really snowing, but they haven't cancelled school yet. This picture is from Hannuka; more on flickr. If you don't follow the Ison blog, here is the link. Sherrill has been posting a bout their trip.

Change of plans

Chiara will not be confirmed this year. Her class trip was scheduled for the week of her confirmation. I spoke to the director of Religious Education and the best solution is that she will be confirmed next year. She will continue to go to classes and do her volunteer work for this year.

The weekend

We had a very nice weekend. Ashwani, Jo and Susi came to New York. Susi stayed with us and Ashwani and Jo at Kamala’s. Junnu joined us for dinner Friday and then again for lunch, at Saravanaa’s and dinner at our local Chinese. It was nice to see him. I took the big girls and Isabella, to see the new Narnia movie. It was fun. I took Isabella home and was given a tour of their new apartment.

FYI

Chiara is getting confirmed on May 18.

Lake effect, it is still real.

Kalyani plowing, snow, Rachel's b'day and lovely Hanukkah.
I knocked a good video down the page, sorry, but check it out.

The tree is up

We put our tree up yesterday. Today we went to see the Christmas shops at Union Square and had brunch at Rosa's.

Are we getting presents for everyone this year or just for kids?
