Happy birthday Cooper! (and Alex too...)

Now that Cooper is in kindergarten, we didn't need to have his birthday party so early in the month.  Even so, he had a huge turnout to demonstrate his karate moves.  Parker enjoyed getting in on the action as well.

Fall into winter

Before the cold days set in, we got in some more nice days out back.  And celebrated as Cooper became an orange belt in karate!  And then....the snow came.

Thanksgivinkkah!

This year, calendars collided, and Thanksgiving Eve brought the first night of Hanukkah.  We had the Gershman side of the family to celebrate the 2 holidays, and lots of craziness ensued!
The three grandsons - before things got crazy!





Lots of family pictures

Lighting the candles...


Then presents....

Then dessert!
