All in all it was a fun weekend. M had fun at her bat mitzvah last night, A hung out with Natalie, and today the girls ran Hanukah-related errands with Daddy while N and I went shopping for some food-related gifts we are making. On the way home from shopping, I said, "N, thanks so much for keeping me company when we went shopping today." He said, "No, Mommy, thank you for keeping ME company when we went shopping." We each said that it was so much more fun having the other one with us when we went. 

We bought an 8th dog for N's collection today. His name is Chase Dog because he can run really fast.

N has also been drawing vehicles for his weekend project. Next up is a taxicab.

Tonight Grandma came over for dinner. It was so good to see her after a month away! She had a really good trip and she is also glad to be home.

Tomorrow morning… interviews at (dum dum DUM) National Cathedral School. 

2 more weeks of school/work and then it's Christmas Break, aka the week we do all school applications.
