<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ah, it's been awhile. I've had many nights falling asleep thinking, "Oh, the blog. I would really like to update the blo....zzzzzzzzzz." </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We've had a summer that can only be characterized as "work hard/play hard" which has been awesome, but my usual 8-10pm "me time" has been replaced by much-needed "sleep time" :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">BUT! I'm back! The fall routine always comes just in time. This fall brings with it a Kindergartener and a third grader and is off to a nice, mellow start. This weekend, we celebrated the fall equinox by getting one more summer weekend at the coast. We left 87 degree weather here in the valley and found it to be significantly cooler at the coast, but it didn't deter these kiddos!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"Let it go, let it go! I can't hold it back anymore!..." If you have not seen Frozen, fear not: we saw it for you. A lot of times. I lost count somewhere after five, but the girls are still counting...and still singing. Who gets to sing what song from that movie's score is the most highly controversial topic in our house these days, as if there are a finite amount of times that "Do You Want To Build A Snowman" can be sung and IT HAS TO MY TURN NOW! I assure you, the number of times these songs can be sung is, in fact, infinite. We have proven it in our living room, at school, on the bikes and in the car...</span></div>

Easter Egg dying!</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We sort of pushed right on past Easter this year without much fanfare.

Only one really big guy fell and got caught up in the tree limbs and is sort of dangling there ominously. So, no backyard play time until that's dealt with!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Happy New Year! We're a little slow on the uptake, and our tidings come a little late, but it's still 2014, and we hope it's been a happy one for everyone thus far. A wonderful one here, with the heart-breaking exception of the loss of our sweet Lucy girl, who died in her bed, on her own terms early on New Year's Eve... We were so blessed to have that little furball of light in our lives and we miss her dearly. While Mike stayed home to take care of things, the girls, Bodhi and I headed to the beach for the day...</span></div>

I had to be very clandestine about the photo-taking, so it's not an award-winning photo in any way except subject: Jewish/Pagan/Defies All Labels Mikey in a Lutheran church choir. (For those of you who haven't heard and are wondering if the Internets brought you to the wrong Grossman Family Blog site, Mike's music mentor/teacher has assigned him to this experience as a way to continuously grow musically/sight read, etc.; this teacher also happens to be the director of this choir, so lacking any affiliation to a church of his own, Mike joined his teacher's crew!) This is the rehearsal before the service; our whole family went to Midnight Mass to sing Christmas Carols, right up to the traditional candle-lighting and singing of Silent Night... an experience that Winona summed up best, "It was great... once a year or so." Amen, sister. </span></div>

Other fun times in LA: visiting "Dad's Castle!" This is where Mike lived for 10 years during his Hollywood Hills era of life (We will not mention that he lived in the "dungeon"-- a teeny tiny little room on the ground floor. :) We stopped in and visited his landlord of so many years ago and were welcomed with open arms and a fantastic tour of this incredible house... castle. It really is a castle.</div>
