Day 17, late morning


For the last two days the boys have been having their “spring break”, which means we have completely suspended anything remotely academic.  We have been, however, trying to keep ourselves entertained in other ways.

One of them: an exercise regimen led by yours truly.  I rush to assure you that any psychological benefit we gain from the workouts is dwarfed by the stress of trying to organize said workouts.  Still, here is the evidence:




Notice how Zev’s facial expression changes through the set


Ben and I are working too.  For the record, Alla does participate, but she is behind the camera as much as on the floor.  Alla did decide to support our drive towards healthy living:


Sabotage!  Delicious, delicious sabotage!


We are also trying games.  Some are played solo:
Pretty sure Ben is winning

I have decided that the kids are old enough to be introduced to a classic: Risk!
In this game: Zev and Ben has taken control of a continent each; I am gambling on trying to hold North America and Alla is curving her way through Europe and Asia.

Not surprisingly, your humble narrator was eliminated first.  Alla and Zev fared slightly better.
Predictable result.  yes, Ben's army is so huge that pieces of one color were not sufficient.
