What a weekend!

First of all, Happy Hannukah (insert another spelling if you prefer) !

On Friday we lit candles, and gave Micah and Emmet their presents - a camping theme was this year's Hannukah story. Sleeping bags, flaslights and two tents - one that will seemingly accomodate a family of seven plus den (damn they make these big!), and another more pedestrian one room tent - which of course we HAD to set up in the living room - and this "smaller" tent took up the whole room. Looking forward to camping it up with Rafe, Alex, Amina, Karl, Aimee, Caleb and many others come spring (or even in January given the weather patterns these days).

On Saturday we went to Wilmington DE to visit sister and brother-in-law, Aaron and Deborah and celebrate Hannukan with them and Roni's folks. Micah and Emet got another round of kick-ass presents, but as sibling rivalry would have it, the two have been duking it out over the Spiderman scooter Micah received.

More importanly we got to go visit new niece (and seriously motivated pree-mie) Lily. I was thrilled - I went to the NICU and got to chill with Lily - she even grabbed my finger. She's beautiful, and I'm so excited - here's a pic:
