Today we took the kids sledding at the cardboard park. I only had my phone but got a few short videos of the kids and Miriam going down the hill in the sled. See the videos here.
While I was going through the pictures from my phone I found a few from our Hanukkah trip to Albany as well.
Per tradition we all went over to Lita's for Christmas Eve to have dessert and open some presents with Lita and Natania. 
After presents, the kids wanted to put cherries on the Lemon Meringue pie...I am not sure why, but they had fun.
Not to disappoint, the Fiber Optic Christmas tree and "Fiber Optic Santa" made an appearance in the video as well...a Hungry Caterpillar Monster!!! Don't miss the it!
This year we spent Hanukkah in 3 states; New York, Minnesota and Michigan. 
See our pictures and a 3 videos from Hanukkah here.
See some pictures of Grandma and Grandpa's 3 days with the kids as well as Grandma's pictures from Albany on the lower right corner of the page in the "Other Lubin Photos" Section. 
Isaac's Pre-K class had there "Songfest" on Wednesday. They have been preparing for this for several weeks now and we were all really excited to see the kids put on the show. They sang three songs; "Children of the World", "Happy Holidays" and "Jingle Bells". For the first song the kids sang it with sign language which was really sweet, there were a few tears shed. The "Happy Holidays" song was a bit funnier...pay special attention to Isaac and his letter "A". He did a great job correcting himself....
There is a video of the song fest and some more pictures at the link.
This week after the ice skating class there was a hockey game which we were able to stay after and watch. He was very interested in the game, and is starting to ask questions about the rules. For some reason he is especially interested in the penalty box....
Another great Thanksgiving weekend! This year Grandma Hillary and Grandpa Ricky brought GG (Great-Grandma Pearl) to spend the weekend at our house. The kids had a fun time playing with everyone all weekend, especially waking everyone up early in the morning! 
On Wednesday, the boys met Tony downtown for dinner and a Red Wings hockey game. Isaac's first hockey game, which coincides well with his recent commencement of ice skating lessons.
Once again Miriam and her helpers cooked up a wonderful Thanksgiving feast for Thursday and Grandpa carved the turkey.
See more photos and a video of the weekend here.
Friday and Saturday morning the kids spent some time in the house playing quite a bit together. Friday with Miriam and Saturday with me...
Today we took the kids to the Henry Ford Museum, there was a special Lego Castle Adventure exhibit.
The kids were able to build there own castles, dress up as; nights, dragons, and princesses, play in the "big" castle and joust. There was also an exhibit showing all the old Lego sets from the 70/80's too.
Isaac and Noah marching in the parade.
Click here for some more pictures and a video of the parade and the class singing Halloween songs.
Over the weekend the kids carved their own pumpkins with Miriam. I was sick and slept through most of the weekend, so unfortunately I missed this, but Miriam managed to catch a few pictures and a video of Isaac singing the Jack-o-Lantern song.
By Tuesday, I was feeling better and I was able to help Isaac carve the "big" pumpkin. We decided to carve both sides, one with his drawing and one with mine. 
He drew a ghost which I helped him carve...and he helped me carve a skull.
Miriam caught her initial reaction on video and then when Isaac came home from school we caught his reaction to his new BIG MATTRESS (I am not kidding it is like two mattresses in height, almost as tall as he is!). We gave Olivia his old mattress so he would get something new too...
The kids really enjoyed it. Here are a few more pictures.
