Passover in Avon

We went to Avon for Passover this year, and had so much fun. Noah spent most of the time playing with Ben. They played Wii, and Star Wars, and built Lego shooters and space ships, and played computer and the IPad....


We had a great Sedar. Though Sophie was the youngest, Noah helped with the first of the 4 questions.And dinner was great as always. Noah really isn't scowling... The kids opend the door to let Elijah in.And then, it was time to find the Matza. Poppy did a really good job this year -- it was pretty hard to find.Then more fun and games. Check out this pictures of all of Nanny and Poppy Grandsons!And the little guys with with big girl!
And check out this handsome devil (we know what you're thinking--which one?!)This one of course!
Happy Passover! For other fun pictures from Passover in Avon, check out Sophie's blog!

Noah and the Childrens' Garden

We found a great place, in Camden NJ of all places, called the Children's Garden. It was a warm Sunday afternoon, and they had a "Bug and Dinosaur Festival". So off we went. Noah got to do all kinds of cool things. Like be part of a butterfly family!Walk around the garden from Alice in Wonderland. See what happens when you get really small?And make all kinds of things. Like BUG-EYES....Plant peas (which are now growing!)Do a maze.Ride the Carousel. Notice that he went all by himself for the first time ever!And ride the train. Remember how Noah used to LOVE trains!! He still likes them, but would probably rather be in a Jedi Starfighter.We'll have some pictures from Passover soon. Noah's class had a sedar and all kinds of fun and singing, and Kathy got to go. It was really fun.More fun from the Wii-Master soon!

The Monkey and the Dinosaur

Noah has been one busy little boy. Or big boy. A couple of weeks ago the weather warmed up a little and we spent the afternoon at the zoo. First, dinosaurs come from eggs, don't they. Look what we hatched....

Look at the Monkey and The Dinosour!

And see who's peeking out of Froggy.All this playing sure makes you thirsty. We had to stop and get some water from the vending machine.And then on to the Carousel. Noah liked the anteater.The following week was Purim. Temple Sholom had a really fun Purim carnival. You could dress up and Noah chose to wear his race care driver costume from Halloween. He and mom were waiting in line for the King's bean bag toss. You won tickets at each game, and could trade in the tickets for fun prizes at the end.Noah actually won alot of tickets. He picked out a couple prizes and had a number of tickets left over. Just then, a little boy came into the prize room with his mom. We didn't know the boy or his mother. The mother told the boy he didn't have enough tickets for the prize he wanted, and had to go look at the other end of the table. Noah walked up to the boy, and gave him his extra tickets so he could get the prize he wanted. No one asked him to do that. We were really proud of him.

Now that the weather is warm, we've been outside more. There is a wonderful park at Haverford Reserve we've been too, and Noah always makes some new friends. More pictures soon!
