Family Pics, Take 2

As a followup to my previous post about the pics Eliza Truitt took of our family, she just posted a blog entry about her favorites of the pics; worth clicking on to see many of them in larger form:

Family Picture Time

ahaverbuch — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 21:33:18 +0000

A couple of our closest friends were extremely generous, and hired our wonderful wedding photographer, Eliza Truitt (you might remember her from the post on our wedding pictures) to do a formal family picture shoot of Joelle, Aviva, and I (and since we did it at home, Molly snuck into a few shots as well – she couldn’t stay away!). The pictures turned out great, and are well worth flipping through; you can also order hard-copies straight from the link below as well:

(Note: the link above will expire mid-October, so the pictures won’t be available after this time).

Updating my post from December 2008, it is time for a new family picture:

In all seriousness, here’s a picture we took on our walk yesterday up to Kerry Park – one of the great viewpoints in Seattle; conveniently, it is only a few blocks away.

Dreaming of a White (Lead-up to) Hannukah!

ahaverbuch — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 05:15:58 +0000

Seattle, on average, gets 3 inches of a snow a year. So far, this week, we’ve received quite a bit more than that – by some accounts, we’ll have a foot by the time it’s all said and done. While this is nothing by Michigan standards, Seattle is a different beast; not only is the city not really prepared for it (snowplows, etc…), and not only is it much more hilly (especially our neighborhood and the main street up to it – not my video by the way), but the city just isn’t used to it – so everyone goes out to play, and the city pretty much shuts down. In fact, on Wednesday, Seattle schools shut down just because of the threat of snow; it never actually did. But ever since then, boy has it been snowing (and snowing, and snowing) – and it’s been fun to take advantage of, and thus, take pictures of!

Dogs love the snow – so of course, they were out to play a lot. Videos were taken. (If you are in a RSS reader, you might need to visit the page to see these).

Today is actually my birthday, but we had to cancel my birthday party due to the treacherous conditions; we didn’t want anybody to have to drive. Instead, my sister brought over a cake to the house, and we celebrated with me and the girls (Joelle, Elana, Little Hobey (to-be), Molly and Shay); I actually rather enjoyed it!

FInally, to cap a great weekend, Hannukah started tonight, so we took a walk over to Kavana’s Hannukah Party, which met just down the street.

Happy Hannukah!

From all of us here in snowy Seattle, Happy Hannukah!

Snow == Play, For Dogs as Well

As all of you in Seattle know, today was our first (only?) snow day of the winter – which meant it was time to go outside and play! All of the neighborhood dogs congregated at the park, and who were we to deprive Molly of having her fun too? My sister came over as well, and thankfully, remembered to bring her camera.

Pictures tell the story:

Friendly Updates

A couple of updates from the real world, many through the blogosphere.

We spent time this weekend hanging out with our friends Mike and Elisabeth (and their son, Rudy). It actually was really great seeing them, and it was great to get a chance to have Molly hang out with Rudy; as any amount of training and getting her comfortable around babys will make our lives easier once Hobey is born. (and for the record, Molly’s not ferocious!)
Congratulations to Carrie and Josh on the birth of their beautiful daughter – Ayelet Nomi Hearshen. The baby naming ceremony on Sunday was wonderful, and a great testament to the love you have for your new baby girl.
A few weeks late, but congratulations to Aaron and Julie on the birth of Eytan Henry – we can’t wait to meet him when we are next in DC (or overlap in Detroit).
Stephanie started blogging on the FidLorb life up in Lynnwood – welcome to the crowd! Abe has also been blogging, on a great foodie idea – there’s a tremendous amount of restaurants up on Hwy 99 (also known as Aurora) by them, some sketchy, but theoretically, some good – so their goal is to eat at all of them, and write up the experience. (in fact, we joined them for one: Spartas Pizza)
On a completely unrelated note: Seahawks and Lions and Michigan and U-W – wow, the football teams I like are awful. Combined record: 5-30. Not a fun year on the football side.

Lots of Girls All Around Me (Or At Least There Will Be)
