Easter egg/cupcake party

April 19, 2011

With Easter right around the corner, we held an egg-decorating party with Alexander and Ian Hughes plus the four Grossman kids: Cecilia, Mischa, Vera and Sascha. Sorry, just one picture of the egg decorating session, but the cupcake devouring was just as colorful! The party ended up with chocolate bunnies to take home.

Stay away with that toxic blue hand, Ian!

Don’t worry, the blue dye on that tongue will fade over the next month or so!

Yes, the red cupcake stains as badly as does the blue, Sascha, but it tastes as good!

One person managed to stay neat throughout the otherwise messy process: Cecilia.

Mischa was more concerned with displaying his handiwork in the form of modern, instant pisanki eggs
Vera was deadly serious about her chocolate bunny

Penelope (Penny) Ambrose

April 17, 2011

On April 15 at approximately 8:20 am, Danny Ambrose assisted at Allyson Sklover Ambrose’s delivery of a 7 lb 5 oz beautiful, if somewhat pink baby girl, Penelope Cecilia Ambrose.

Does that chubby face look like anyone we know?

There’s never been three happier people!

Some call her “Ciocia,” others, “Marzena.” This kid calls her “Babcia.”

While Christopher is still 1 year old

April 7, 2011

Christopher John Ambrose will be turning 2 later this month. While he is still officially “one,” I took the opportunity last Sunday to photograph him with 101 year-old (that’s right, one hundred and one!) Ralph Golzio.

1 and 101

Where else? At San Remo where they are both frequent imbibers, in Chris’s case: Coffee. Ralph prefers soft drinks. The warm greetings and hearty handshakes they exchanged, now that they are both familiar from previous encounters, was touching to witness. We hope this is the start of a long and mutually beneficial friendship!

Later, Christopher, exhausted with all this socializing, took a nap with his favorite cat, Lucy. Here they’re both just about to nod off.
