Ok, today was fun! Talya was on the bus, and then we found tamar and michal and tehilah and we all got to school at 9:05. That is late... the teacher wasnt there yet, but the principle was standing in the hall and reprimanding some elevnth graders, so when we walked by he asked if we started late today. It would have been easier to say yes, but we just said "beit shemesh=traffic" and then looking curiously at the two girls from jerusalem, he let us go to class without any further incidents occuring.
Toshbah-free-tanach test-lashon-chinuch-chemistry... and no of them was really boring (chemistry included... i love new topics!)
So now I am home again and listening to my little sibling fight over the computer and cardboard house downstairs.
I love babysitting for them!
Ok, I should really finish my America story... well, here it goes...
Hmmm, we are up to arriving at the Halperts. Well, we gave them their gifts: flowers, fish shaped crunchies, parchment papers, kif kef bars, and crembos... The men went to daven and Lori and I chatted with Nancy and Arleen Wolf. It was pretty funny, as was the whole nights events. Ok, Kiddush, washing, and course number one. No offence mommy, but I didnt miss your cooking on friday night. Mitch poured out the first expensive wine... Lori and I dont remember exactly how much it costs, but he is in the wine business, so he has some good stuff! anyway, we all drank... Ok, so I didnt drink so much, but more than I ever drank before. It was good :) Right Abba?! Ok, we walked back to Saba and Savtas empty house after supper and had fun skating on the ice and freezing... Sleep and then forgotten dreams...
Shabbat morning we woke up, got ready for shul and left the house. Shul was louder than I remember it being. why do people feel compelled to talk during davening? It was missing Rabbi C's speech and commentary, but Rabbi Shapiro did a good job too... The kiddush was interesting. Stuie did get taller, and he was wearing an awful kippah, and now he wants and orange and red one... ewww... We socialized and then when I could stand socializing anymore, I went to daven minchah. Then all the men left and the women headed upstairs for the Shabbat Kallah. Tova made me and Lori speak. It was a nice afternoon, and Chanaleh was getting married the next day... scary thought. she got lots of brachot and it was very nice.
After shabbat, we left Chabad and went back the the old Rubin house... We picked up the gifts for Aunt Rhoda and Uncle Michael and forgot the pies. So me, Lori, abba, aunt rhoda, uncle michael, josh, jackie, jeremey, and jeffery (sort of) all talked and we had levys (Lors, i dont know what you are talking about ;) ). The two newest additons to the houshold are Cassie and Zoie. Fluffy, active, little puppies. Expensive puppies... Lori succeded in scaring Josh, by talking about a pocket knife less country and bags of milk and setting slugs on fire. Think he'll come visit? hehehe! all in all it was a very nice evening. Abbas side of the family is nice when we meet one on one, instead of us vs. them. I hate to put it that way, but maybe that way us polly kids recieve attention.
After our lovely evening we went back to Saba and Savtas and went to sleep.
Sunday was weird. Woke up, and went to target. We got some cool stuff. Pocket knives, clothes, ice cream scoopers, cds, and a barrel of monkeys. Then we went to get ready for the wedding. The reason for our trip. There was an open house when we got back, so we talked to the bored guy who was sitting in the house waiting to show it to people who showed up to see it. It was interesting.
We then drove to Crown Heights and attended the wedding of Chanaleh and Levi. It was huge and beautiful and amazing, and chanaleh looked stunning and was so happy it was adorable.
Everyone asked me to describe it, but it was a wedding, and what can you say? they got married and then we partied...
Back to New Jersey... sleep sleep sleep sleep... the bed is calling...
Should I save monday and tuesdays adverntures for tomorrow? or saturday night? I should go do some reall work since i've been writing this for half an hour! goodness gracious!!!! ok, g'night mush!
