Hanukkah Weekend in Albany

Thursday we headed to Albany to visit Grandma and Grandpa for Hanukkah. Stacey, Josh and Baby Gabriel met us there for a fun filled extended weekend. On the way there the kids got to be part of a High School Orchestra in the airport and ring the bells for some holiday songs. Friday we went to Target bought Olivia some snow boots and a sled and went sledding. There was over a foot of snow! The kids had a lot of fun, so much Isaac talked Nadine into going again Saturday afternoon.Saturday Ricky and Hillary invited all of our family and friends over to meet the 3 kids for lunch. We took some family photos, played games and enjoyed catching up with everyone. The kids got a lot of presents (Thanks everyone!!). One of the presents Isaac received was a Super-Hero costume and handbook. He put on a show once everyone left.... this makes up the majority of the video for the weekend(it was a bit long and I could not post it her so it is with the other pictures, use the link below..).

Sunday we went to Disney on Ice, Olivia fell asleep on the way but once she woke up she was as mesmerized as Isaac was by the show. Later that night we celebrated the first night of Hanukkah making Latkes, lighting the candles and opening presents. This was the first Hanukkah with all 3 cousins together!

Monday we celebrated the Second Night of Hanukkah and Isaac Sang the Dreidel Song. See the video of the song too at the link below.

Tuesday we went to the museum and then headed back to Michigan. Our flight was delayed 3 hours so we got home around 11:30 PM and the kids were already asleep....

See more of our pictures and a few videos here.
