Good Bye Emanu-El

Today I said good bye to Temple Emanu-El on the corner of 5th Ave and 65th Street (NYC), after 6 years as their Communications Director. What a beautiful place, I will miss the friends I made. I start with the Seaman's Church Institute in two weeks.

We Grew a Teenager.

 Look at that. Hugo here blows out the candles to celebrate his 13th birthday. 

In Tune! 

Yes, these are special cyan birthday pancakes with marshmallows, chocolate chips and sprinkles

His school group called and wished him a Happy Birthday!

Hugo got a lot of beats-makin' equipment! 

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas, and thank you all!

Another First Day

Whoops! I realize I forgot to do a first day of school post last week. (Or was it the week before last?) Anyway...here they are: Dash off to 6th grade, Hugo off to 7th.

Hey Myrtle!
