Labor Day Weekend

This past Labor Day, we spent the weekend with Josh's parents during their recent visit to Phoenix. Much fun was had. We celebrated Shabbat on Friday, visited the Arizona Science Center on Saturday and enjoyed a pool party on Sunday at Alisha's home.

Our Saturday excursion to visit the Arizona Science Center was to experience the exhibit, Sesame Street Presents The Body. The exhibit itself was very interactive and fun. However, we were sorely disappointed that there were not Sesame Street characters roaming the exhibit. In fact, there was only one character available to interact with, Cookie Monster. He did not even make an appearance at the exhibit until an hour after opening time. And then, when he did arrive, he was only available to kids who waited in a very long wait line to see him. Sadly, our kids never visited with Cookie Monster that morning.

Sunday afternoon was spent poolside christening Alisha's new pool. The kids loved swimming with their Aunt Alisha, while the adults had some time to chat and eat some good food. What a good Labor Day celebration!
