Cancun Vacation!

Losing to Benjamin in Gin...but I finally beat him on the plane!

Drinks in paradise!

Anniversary = 15% off a massage (woohoo!)

It was a beautiful and much needed vacation of relaxation at Excellence Playa Mujeres! We had to go to urgent care with Chaya the night before we flew out (sheesh), but Courtney Chirpich in all her amazingness took care of our sick and emotional toddler. G-d bless Courtney!

Happy 8th Night of Hannukah!

Happy Hannukah Dads PJ Party!

Frosted!!!

I was a little less patient this year, but with Benjamin's help we did it! They look pretty nice!

Hannukah Cookies Baked

The first taste!

1 angel cookie each year for Gramma

This was the first time we made cookies without Gramma. 

My dough was sticky, but she helped me out ;-)

Now, on to the frosting! 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Might be one of the best photos we girls have ever taken - look at that girlie's smile!

SNOWBALL!

Happy Halloween 2015!

Our purple and pink monster "with a furry belly" as she would say ;-)

Coloring on the pumpkin before carving

 

Halloween 2014 -missing you so much mom

 

I made a pillow from mom's favorite Halloween t-shirt (she is wearing it above). 

I also wore silly Halloween socks and her cat and jack-o-lantern earrings.

Made me smile.

Pumpkin Farm 2015

Had an absolutely magical day at the farm with my best friend and her son! 

I am going back next year for sure!

Happy 5 Year Anniversary!

We finally went to Nye's Polonaise Room! A true landmark in Minneapolis.

It was a great night out...to celebrate something so very special.

Our First Sukkah

 

We got our first Sukkah this year! 

I honestly have to contain my excitement. If I had a bit more free time there would be like 5 more decorations for this thing - thank you Pintrest!

It's Been 19 Months, But We're Back!

1 MBA, 3 job changes, and the loss of 1 warm and gentle Gramma equates to a great amount of transition for this little Berkowitz family. But, we are fighting for the happy because we deserve it! And Chaya, well she brings new meaning to her name - alive indeed at two and a half!
