Yay Taylor

The boys and I had a great American Idol party last night (That's binyamin holding his "go Talor" sign.) I bought inflatable microphones and guitars, record decorations and bowls, and cool sunglasses for everyone. We had lots of junk food, and made signs supporting our favorite idol which was Taylor for all of us, except M. Her sign read "I voted for the Wiggles! Go Anthony!" Which is all the more ironic because Taylor Hicks is a Wiggles fan himself!

The chagigah siddur went so well, that I could actually sit through the whole thing this year. Y did a great job, and really nailed his lines. He's a natural actor! My job - the food prep, and display, went off without a hitch, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

M had another ear infection this week. Poor baby. I got a call from the babysitter in the middle of class on Tuesday and freaked because I thought she was having a peanut allergy attack. In the end she had a fever, which is a less panicky situation.

Did anyone else see Oprah's show from Auschwitz with Elie Weisel? Wow! I decided after watching it that I must go there. Despite all of my Holocaust studies and my work with the survivors, I feel that I actually have to see it in person to fully grasp it. Of course the tickets from Detriot to Karkow are $2000 this summer, and I would have to find someone to watch the kiddies while I am away. Not looking so likely in the near future.

That's about all that's new here.
