Ella and Grady

here

Snow!

We woke up Thanksgiving morning to...snow! We bundled Ella up, put on her umbrella, and Grandpa Gary took her for a walk.

packing

Alas, we have to pack. It's a sad day. It's been wonderful here, and we're already missing everyone. Our only regret is that we spent too much time working -- next time it will have to be a real vacation.

But the real question today is "how does Ella pack all of her new toys?" Somehow we're flying to Chicago with way more than we brought! Thanks everyone, and we'll miss you all!

rainbow at the nemal

We're down at the harbor in Tel Aviv with dod Assaf. Keren's camera died so all we have is my cell phone camera. This was the most intense rainbow I've ever seen, but Ella didn't seem to notice.

office space

The last few days at Safta Dalia's I wake up about 5:30am, eat breakfast, and then deal with all the work that piled up on my desk overnight.
