FAB, FRILLS & FUN!

A bachelorette weekend of sunny days in Palm Springs! Celebrating the bride to be, Alli, with all the girls in tow--Claudia, Amanda, Bree, Shandra and myself. We never left The Parker (http://www.theparkerpalmsprings.com/), bathed in the sun, lounged in the gardens, champagne toasts, wine at sunset, greyhounds and margaritas, dessert room-service, brunch, and Muddled Lemon!!...a complete refresher with the girls! And we even said a HELLO to Carson Kressley (you know, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and How To Look Good Naked). Good times!

So Proud of the Hubby

DeltAcademy for the Performing Arts

Rob was officially offered his first teaching job at Delta Academy for the Performing Arts! He is one of the seven founding teachers at the new high school. You are looking at the full-time theater teacher! BRAVO, Mr. S!!!! WOOOHOOO!

One of those weekends...

...that just felt so good! You wake up on Monday (and though the thought of having a whole work week ahead sucks) you think back and feel at ease, at peace and refreshed from a GREAT weekend! I LOVE those moments! Seders, family, friends, shopping, cornbeef on rye, kugel...the BEST!

The Meshpucha

The whole meshpucha gathered at Lainee's and Uncle P's for seder! It was loveable... all cousins from 1st to 2nd to once removed. New babies, birthdays, good food and a very short Haggadah (who could ask for more). You Bet Your Balls was won by Noah and Simon! A matzoh ball contest the family has played for nearly 70 years!

The Ladies (ONLY)

Last Thursday was spent at the NCJW Seder for Women! It was wonderfully delicious in so many ways. My mom and Lainee joined in the fun, I got to be with my fabulous NCJW young women's group friends, the Haggadah was all about women's involvement in Passover history. Needless to say that Miriam, Moses' sister, had much to do with the traditions...how fitting, my Mimi. Catered by Balabusta! LOVE IT! Good times! Btw, two of the ladies in this pic are preggos with twins and due 7 days apart...coincidence!
