What an Amazing Trip!!!
I haven't posted in a while, since I went away...to Israel for my cousins Bar Mitzvah. It was great! But then I haven't been able to post since I had to catch up on everything!
Let's see 18 family members in Isreal, we had our moments, but in the end it was great.
Izzy did a fantastic job, he got to do two bar mitzvahs, which meant two parties :) For one we got to dress in robes and danced around holding trays of sweets. The other was a party in the backyard under a tent. Aunty Rivka thought it looked like a circus, but I thought it was great, and since it poured that night it was very useful! I got a chance to see people I haven't seen in a long time, as well as bond with my cousins, which we could probably use a little more of. I also got to meet some new people. It was nice. I was staying at Aunty Rivka's house, so I got see more of her and have some fun late night silly chats. Her doggies are sooo cute, and the cat Pumpkin too. We went to a spa for two nights, that was such a treat. The first night everyone was there, and the second it was just me, Mum and Dad. We had our own little hut with a jacuzzi, and slippers and robes for everyone :)
One more week of school, which is crazy!!!! I still don't know what to do for the summer. ahh stress...
Running is going good this past weekend I did the Spring Run Off in High Par. My time was 48:33, which is ok, and then on Sunday I ran 16k (which is the farthest I've run so far, and it was a good run!)
This Sunday is our first dragon boating practice, I really hope it doesn't snow!!!!
