Did you miss me?

Hello everybody! We're back! OK, we have been back for a couple weeks now already, but I have been crazy busy and have had no time to blog.

And all those guest-blogger promises didn't come to fruition, so you have just had to wait until I found the time to write.

We had a great time in Canada - as is evident in the pictures below. My apologies to all those I spoke to and didn't see, or didn't even get a chance to speak to. Despite its length it was a whirlwind trip and poof, suddenly it was over.



At the lounge in Ben Gurion on the way to Toronto...


Ayelet's first class berth.


Cousin's at play.. AK hiding.


More cousins at play.

Hadas's first ever snowman.




Our fantasy escape to Las Vegas - thanks to Mum and Dad (and Karen) for making it possible!

In front of the Bellagio... Ruby wouldn't let me watch the fountains over and over again.


Our hotel... which had a large fire this week -- this sign is now ash...


My lucky machine at Caesar's Palace - I won $12!! (OK, then I lost $20)

Um, you mean we should have gone to Fremont street at night? We imagined the lights.. it was beautiful.

Hadas is amazed at the snow. She wanted to go outside the minute we got to Bubie and Saba's house. Ruby was also pretty excited to see the snow. I liked it indoors.





Bubie and the girls at.. can you guess.. the mall.

Saba and Hadas at Nathan Phillips Square... minus the skates.


Another wintry day at 401 Mullen Drive.


The four cousins cuddling up in the basement -- this may have been before or after Benji and Hadas's performance - well at least the three hour preparations for the performance that never actually happened.


I love my cousin!


The point of the whole trip.




TV anybody? There are at least a dozen pictures like this -- just the clothing changes.
Now things are finally getting back to normal. I made it to work before 8AM and the girls are sleeping through the night (TFU, TFU, TFU).

Here in Israel, winter is out in full force this week - rain and wind and relatively cold.

That is all the time I have right now. I hope you all enjoy the photos. And you are all welcome to come and visit us here!!
