Moby!!!


Oh I forgot I also met Moby the artist...last week...Mike reminded me that if I met him I would say something to him (I told Mike that like 2 years ago and I had a little speech in my mind of what I would say bc truly I have been so inspired by his music and his heart for the world which seems to be reflected in his songs...although they are not really word based but just listen to them you will see)...well anyhow I wasn't confident that it was Moby that we saw...we were in a huge restaurant just our friends and "Moby" and I had to do it (well first I didn't I left the restaurant and then I remembered that I always told myself I would do it so I went back in)...so I went over to him put my hand on his shoulder (I guess I am a physical touch person...I forget that that may not be normal for other ppl anyhow...but I think it is more human to touch ppl) so anyhow I was like "do you just look like Moby" he said "No its me I'm Moby" and I thanked him for creating and music..and then off I went into the rainy streets of NYC, but giddy from meeting Moby...if you don't know his music you should...I love his album 18

April

Me and the Bride...congrats!

My hot husband!

Friends -

So here I am at my computer....

Life has been good...and it is a great joy that the weather around here is turning from snowy to sunny and warm!!!! :) Not that I am in my bikini at the park yet but hopefully tommorrow I will be!!! (note also I was sick for 3 weeks which I think was partly bc of the flip floppy weather it would be 65 then in the 30's and snowy!)

So in celebration of the season finally turning for NYC I had my nails done (like my friend Lara) it is one of my favorite things to do...get my nails done: first it is relaxing, second I love looking at my feminine and pretty hands all day after that (my mom always paints her nails so it reminds me of her too) third its cheap..10 bucks and you even get a little hand and forearm massage and at my place a little shoulder massage at the end! So I wish I had a photo but I am soo into nail color (a friend Rahnie and I are crazy about nail colors often envying each other's choice..I know that sounds so particular but I hate when my nails look completely diff than what I saw in the bottle..anyone relate?) so over time I think I have become an expert color selector and so far this season I have seen people with fun bright pinks...so I dove in and selected the perfect magenta shade "no boundries" by essie...ladies its soo important to remember the polish name! :)

Ok this is all kinda silly but that's me.

So lets see last week I had a ton of special friends in town a few from highschool, college, Africa and one from San Fran...that was super special.

Oh and we hosted our annual Easter Celebration! It was so fun I love celebrating holidays with new and old friends; it is special to have ppl to build traditions with especially since family is so far.

And our good friends Purim and Hoek got married...after a little over a year of dating..yeah!!! so here are some pics from that...and thanks to my sweet friend I am wearing this great dress...really those of you who know me well know that I do not really shop for clothes much but like most of us women I always want to feel great in my clothes...its just that I end up spending my money on travel and adventure and photography, oh and food!! But anyhow sometimes I can get insequere about my clothes...again another shallow thing but so true...but praise God I was blessed to have my very own fun hot dress!!! God even cares about the little tiny desires of our heart-the desire to feel confident and look beautiful (even though HE really cares about our inner beauty he knows that we like to feel beautiful in our outfits too).

Ok so that is that...
