This photo was taken last Sunday when we went apple picking at a nearby farm called Demarest http://www.demarestfarms.com/. The kids all had a fantastic time! Elinoa really enjoyed comparing all the different types of apples and Yoav got such a thrill picking the frut straight from the tree. Millie ate her way through the outing and spent the whole day saying "bapple, bapple!".
The kids have settled in to life in the USA- they still havent got used to the amount of adverts interrupting their favorite TV programs though! Yoav gets especialy irate when 'Animal Planet' http://animal.discovery.com/ is interrupted. School http://benporatyosef.org/ is great - a very small and intimate establishment where the kids get a lot of attention. Millie goes to 'Morah Gitty' three times a week . Her friends there are Paige, Sydney, Elisha and Hannah and she can say all their names in her own way. She learned to sing "dip the apple in the honey", though in her version, its "dip the bapple in the baby". Millie has just started to say Elinoa & Yoav's names ('no no' and 'av' ) which the kids are really excited about. Elinoa & Yoav are really looking forward to the autumn and are already really enjoying the acorns and sycamore everywhere.
That's all for now
more soon.....

Got our new camera at last! So, this is is the lounge! more soon... 

So, we've been in New Milford for almost 2 weeks now
No photos yet because our camera is broken and new one is on the way.
The kids are having a great time in school and settled in so easily.
I am slowly finding my way about the place and learning the new language.
Millie is as happy as ever - yapping away, stringing words together ('good girl', 'more Elmo' 'kick it'), counting to 10 and doing the 'hokey pokey' with her hokey pokey Elmo ( i'm sure it was the hokey kokey when i was a kid..)
Yesterday was our first proper Sunday together - we took the kids to Central Park Zoo and to Times Square, they had a great day. We need to polish up our navigational skills a little though, they must have walked for miles.
Photos coming really soon...
