It started like a normal Sunday. First, Jane
IMG_0505
did her Sarah imitation and then we took a picture of the new Bose
IMG_0506
that would be an anniversary gift once we reached 20 years.
We even took pictures of the biology experiment
IMG_0507
IMG_0508
IMG_0509
IMG_0510
IMG_0511
as the seeds continued to grow.
But then the urge to go to the ball game became too great
and so we drove to Trenton, got in line
IMG_0512
and waited
IMG_0513
until we could see the green grass
IMG_0514
of spring and the scoreboard
IMG_0515
in center field. This being Yankee hat day meant that
we were in quite a bit of splendor as they
IMG_0516
sent me up to look for hot dogs
IMG_0517
and have Vicki
IMG_0518
serve up a few from this menu
IMG_0519
along with some pizza
IMG_0520
for me. As Ben did the hot dog commercial
IMG_0521
I posed the pizza
IMG_0522
and we watched the groundsmen
IMG_0523
prepare the field so that the umpires
IMG_0524
could get things going. Before we knew it, Boomer was in our section
IMG_0525
and then back towards the field
IMG_0526
IMG_0527
as the camera people
IMG_0528
recorded his every move. While we were there, I was announced in
my new job.
So, a few days later as we prepared for Seder, some balloons came
IMG_0529
and it was important to record the balloons
IMG_0530
and the delivery people but Carolyn blinked
IMG_0531
and again
IMG_0532
before we got the good mother, daughter and balloons
IMG_0533
picture. Then this man
IMG_0534
arrived with more balloons and flowers so that the ceiling looked like this
IMG_0535
when the Tal's
IMG_0536
arrived and then Sarah's friends
IMG_0537
and Robert arrived
IMG_0538
and then he changed into local fashion
IMG_0539
for the seder which amused Peter Kramer
IMG_0540
enough that he took this picture
IMG_0541
much to Seva's amusement.
IMG_0542
We gathered for the seder
IMG_0543
and the music began
IMG_0544
as the seder progressed
IMG_0545
IMG_0546
IMG_0547
until the food could be served and Peter's plate looked like this
IMG_0548
as I ate charoset
IMG_0549
and then had the vegetarian plate
IMG_0550
as Seva and Josh
IMG_0551
discussed Iraq with Yossi
IMG_0552
and found some amusement
IMG_0553
as the crowd at the other table
IMG_0554
IMG_0555
continued their conversations. The kitchen showed the remains
IMG_0556
as Ayellet's fruit salad
IMG_0557
amused Ben
IMG_0558
and Gilead and Omri
IMG_0559
as Josh regressed to his childhood
IMG_0560
Sarah served
IMG_0561
dessert to Laura
IMG_0562
and they posed
IMG_0563
for a room mate picture.
Jane overcame her shyness
IMG_0564
to show her face
IMG_0565
and then experimented with pictures of musical instruments at close range
IMG_0566
IMG_0567
IMG_0568
IMG_0569
IMG_0570
until dessert
IMG_0571
was over. Chag Sa'meach to all.
