Farewell America Barbecue

On Memorial Day we had a barbecue to say goodbye to all our friends in Park Slope. Fun was had by all. Sam said the best bit was the water pistol fights.











The photos below were taken by Hannah with her new camera.











"Take a photo of the children," I said.

Play Up Pompey

Rachel and Sam went to England for a weekend. Entirely by coincidence, Portsmouth were playing in the FA Cup Final. Teresa made sure that Sam had the right outfit to watch the game. And the game had the right result.

Hannah's 8th








Scenes from Hannah's birthday party. This year it was at the Pottery Cafe. The children all chose a piece of pottery and painted and decorated it.

Kathy and I at the conclusion of this year's Brooklyn Half Marathon. We beat last year's time by almost ten minutes. And felt pretty good about it.

Hannah's birthday

To celebrate Hannah's birthday, I took some cupcakes into her classroom.


Later, at swimming, I told Sam and Lucas that there was going to be lots of birthday cake the next day. They were pretty happy about it.
