Summer is Coming

Summer is coming which means I will be here a little less. We have an international trip planned and a local trip planned. I also want to try to explore a bit more of our own state. 

H has four more days of school left and D six. 

H will be saying goodbye to Elementary school and had his moving up ceremony last week. 

and then we went out for dinner to celebrate at Gosht (means meat in Urdu) in Brooklyn. We had all of H's favorites.. meat and marrow.. 

In the midst of all the end of year activities we are also planning a surprise birthday party for my father in law who is turning 75. Don't worry, he doesn't even know the blog exists so the secret is safe. While the party is being hosted at a restaurant we have 8 family members flying in and staying with us for a few days.. So we are party planning then planning activities and food and everything else needed to make it a great weekend. 

All this coincidentally coincides with D turning 15 so we are adding on a little party for him as well. 

This weekend we also celebrated Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to all the fathers. 

my dad and I

It was a gray and rainy day. We went out for brunch with friends and their parents.. we were a total of 28 people.. and of course not a single one of us remembered to take a picture. 

On a separate note... what a moment we are having in America.. this is what is is to be American. This is what our founding fathers fought for and I am so proud to call myself an American.. our government DOES NOT represent us. We are the land of the Free and home of the Brave.. NO KINGS! 

Wishing you all a great summer.. and I will check in when I can.
