Hey guys, hope you’re all doing well!  We were so excited to wake up to a winter wonderland these past few days, the first thing the kids do in the morning is jump out of bed straight to the window and then shout out “snoooowwww”. It really is beautiful and so peaceful once the snow has fallen down. It is also Hanukkah AKA the coziest holiday of the year, there are few things I love more than cozying up at home, even though there are so many holiday parties and events going on, I feel like on Hanukkah it is even more special to take a step back and enjoy cozy days and create family traditions, surrounded by lots of cushions, warm tea and of course homemade doughnuts. Seeing the kids excitement as we light the menorah and watching them dance to all the Hanukkah songs I used to love as a kid  brings so much happiness into our home. Hope you all have a great holiday full of warmth and light! xx

We are enjoying a few last days of nice jacket weather before fall turns into winter and puffy coats are all we can wear. New York gets so so cold, I’m not ready for it! Seriously I’m not sure what will get me through winter this year. Last winter was our first in NY and I was definitely not prepared, I desperately need to invest in a great warm coat.

I love walking around cute neighborhoods, Last Sunday we were in Park Slope, a cute neighborhood in Brooklyn. You’ll find here a lot of moms pushing their strollers and some really cute coffee shops. what I love most about this area is the townhouses, most of the steps to the homes had cute pumpkins and fall decoration.

This lady came out of one of the houses and was arranging the pumpkins on her front steps, I told her how cute the decor was and she said how much she enjoys decorating for every season, she looked so proud of herself. Lets all love what we do as much as this sweet lady loves decorating her front steps! As simple as that. xx

Out trip to Israel was nothing short of amazing!! It was not quite simple  getting over that jet lag and settling back in with 3 kids, I am only now getting around to sharing some photos. We spent our time in Israel between family and trips, mostly in Jerusalem and the Judeaen Hills as this is where I grew up and where my family still live. It’s been one year since we moved to NY and it was the best feeling to be back. The whole area is just beautiful, surrounded by mountains and in the distance you can see the dead sea. The air is just so fresh- I’m not kidding, I really feel like I can breath deeper when I’m there. Most of my family (quite the large family I must say- I have 10 siblings!!) are in Israel and I’ve missed them tremendously this past year, it was so great seeing them all and catching up with everyone’s life, although two weeks was not enough, I wish we could stay for longer. Hope you enjoy these few snaps, now time to kick off some fall coziness and go cuddle up in a huge sweater! XX

Just when I thought summer was over all in NY, the temps rose up again and we enjoyed a week full of warmth and sunshine. Last week has been unreal in terms of weather to say the very least. We even headed to the beach one afternoon- probably for the last time, fingers crossed it stays nice & warm for a bit longer. I’m excited for fall but hate that it leads to winter, I mean I know some people who like the winter, actually maybe like one person. I would skip the winter all together and move on to spring, that would be really lovely. Also, wanted to say Shana Tova to all of you beautiful people, hope this year brings you to great heights and happiness. xx

Hey guys! It’s back to school week, which feels kind of bittersweet to me. On one hand I love hanging out with the kids on these long warm sunny days but then on the other hand, I am definitely ready to get back into some sort of routine and impose some structure around here 🙂 Looking at these photos, I can’t believe how quick the kids are growing up. Lishai is running faster and faster, it’s really hard to keep up with her. Eitan is going into Nursery which reminds me it is time to give him his very first haircut, he turned 3 a few weeks ago but we postponed his party as it fell right when we moved houses, and Yosef is starting first grade! Seems like just yesterday I became a mom and now I have a first grader!  I hope this year goes by smoothly & I wish all you moms out there a succesfull school year to you and your kiddos! All the love.

I’m loving summer in NY so much! This is actually my first summer here, I always came to visit during fall or spring but never came during the summer. One of the things I love about NY is the endless amount of summer activities the city has to offer. If I were to go out every single day I still wouldn’t be able to do half the activities I want to do.

On this particular day we headed to an outdoor movie night in Brooklyn Bridge Park. We brought along some snacks and drinks and sat on blankets on the grass with the stunning view of Manhattan right in front of us. That morning we checked the movie that was going to be played and we were thrilled when we saw it was going to be “office space”. Although Pin and I have already watched it in the past, we both loved it and didn’t mind one bit to re-watch this movie. I highly recommend it if you haven’t seen it yet. This dress ended up being perfect for sitting crossed legged for two hours as well as taking a long walk over the Brooklyn Bridge all the way to the other side which was a first for me. I was actually on the bridge a few times before but never committed to crossing all the way to the other side, the city lights were so beautiful and I’m glad we took that walk! We ended the night at Promenade in NYC, a really nice grill & sports bar with yummy yummy appetizers, it was a great end to a perfect summer’s night! xx

I absolutely cannot wrap my head around the thought that we are nearly at the end of summer, didn’t it just start a second ago?! I feel like I need so many more beach days, water fights with the kids and just lazy days in the back yard. Every time I spend a few hours at the beach I cannot understand why I don’t come here every day, the kids are just drawn to that salty air and can play at the beach for hours at a time. Lishai is at that fearless age where she will literally run straight towards the water and get completely wet so this big blow up ball was a great distraction for her, she had such a blast bouncing on top of it and playing together with Eitan. I love summer with these sweeties!

Back in Israel we didn’t live close to the beach at all, a trip to the beach was kind of a big deal for us and I feel lucky to live so close to the ocean now. Of course with the water comes the crazy humidity which i would definitely give away in a second, it’s just too sticky for me, it reminds me of Tel Aviv while I am more of a Jerusalem girl. The humidity is really unnecessary in my book, I rather leave the stickiness during summer to water melon and ice cream. Hope you guys have the best end of summer and thanks for stopping by! xx
