The Grove









I took 2 boys with me to the Grove last week (an outdoor mall that looks like a movie set). It was so nice to just have to boys with me, I was able to give them each so much more of my attention. It was fairly easy to decide who stayed home. The baby and Avi. Oh don't worry we had our fun in the morning. We all went out in our backyard and I climbed on a ladder and picked lemons from our lemon tree! Yeah how cool is that?! Then we took them inside and washed them, and followed a recipe in a kids cookbook to make... yup you guessed it lemonade! I let them each have a turn juicing lemons on an electric juicer.


Yehuda watched.


Then when we got to the grove we saw sculptures of a lemonade stand! That was neat - no I didn't plan that- Yakov and Ben were so easy to be with. I took them to Barnes and Nobles and read them stories, gave them pennies to throw into the fountain... it was fun.
