I got this in an email today, and I saw that Palin had 51% yes, and 48% No. We need to vote in droves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (BTW, I'm voting NO)
"This is just a TINY thing to do, but I believe that every step counts.
It will take you 2 seconds.
PBS has a poll that asks: Is Sarah Palin qualified to be VP? The Right
Wing has organized a yes vote. Let's turn this around. . . . You don't have to give your name or email address in order to vote. It's very simple.
Here's the link: http://www.pbs.org/now/polls/poll-435.html
Just click & vote… NOW. "

Josh and Blair's Wedding Weekend
We just returned from NY to celebrate and participate in Josh Klaff & Blair Metrick's beautiful wedding. It was truly a fun weekend filled with family events and beautiful moments. We arrived on Thursday and had a nice dinner with Josh's parents & grandparents at the Nautilus Diner in Mamaroneck (Libi's favorite restaurant). Friday was hectic while we prepared for the Shabbat dinner. My mom hosted dinner for about 50 people, including Blair's parents, sister & family, aunt & family, grandparents, etc...and also Josh's aunt, uncle & cousins from Seattle, his grandmother, and all of my mom's siblings with all their children, spouses, girlfriends...What a bunch!
On Saturday morning I worked out in Stamford while the girls & Josh visited with their 2 cousins in North Salem. (We skipped the Auf-Ruff in Long Island, sorry.) We then went over to Keri's new house in Norwalk. That was great because we got to see how they are starting to put their own touches into the house--it's only been about 2 weeks. Also, our girls got to spend time with Ari & Noam. They just love each other so much. Later that evening we trekked to Long Island for a really nice dinner with all of Josh Klaff's side of the family. Our girls had a sleepover with Shoshie and Evie at Josh (W's) parent's house. Even though all of this was hectic and nonstop, it was wonderful to catch up with all of our cousins, and even my sister and brother too. We had a lot of time to sit and talk, which we usually don't have.
Finally we got ready for the wedding on Sunday evening. It was a long day, and our girls got pretty tired. We waited for the photographer to take all the pictures for about 3 hours. The girls couldn't really eat during that time because they had to keep their beautiful flower-girl dresses clean. The wedding service was lovely! Josh Klaff could not keep his eyes off his beloved. We all tucked into the cocktail hour because we hadn't eaten in about 6 hours! Thank god because dinner wasn't served till 11pm. Crazy timing for those of us with kids, but there was so much excitement that it didn't matter. Once the ballroom opened Julia began dancing like her soul was filling a need. It was incredible. She was feeling the music from deep within her, and she danced for about 2 hours straight. Libi danced as well and she has rythym--just watch the video. Marigold lasted until just before the Hora when she fell asleep on my lap. Luckily there was a small room close by that we could put her in while we enjoyed the rest of the wedding. We left at midnight knowing that our children will be recovering from the sleep deprivation all week long, but also knowing that they all had an incredible time.
We can't wait to hear all about Josh & Blair's honeymoon--but truthfully I don't think there will be many details. I'm sure they are just going to enjoy each other most of the time! It's great to be in love and newly married!
Check out the 2 new albums that I posted today, and comment! I'd love to know who's checking out our blog.
