THE LEVIN FAMILY

As always, we start with La Familia. The Levin gang has enjoyed a week
long vacation in Orlando FLA in early November. Nope, we didn't go to Disney.
We went swimming with dolphins at _Discovery Cove_
(http://www.discoverycove.com/) , & enjoyed _Sea World_
(http://www.seaworld.com/) too. That was an
experience of a lifetime! We highly recommend it. We've got some cool PICS &
Vids of the Levin Kids swimming & kissing dolphins. With 80 degree days we
spent much of the time in the pool. Big "THANK YOU" goes out to "Safta"
(Grandma) for letting us use her timeshare.

Back at home, Jonathan (3 y.o.) started speech classes which he finds
enjoyable & is making progress. Matthew & Nikolaus just celebrated their 9th
birthday! They had an enjoyable party with a few friends painting ceramics at
"Color Me Mine." They are getting so tall, & both had very good marks on their
report cards.
Hannah's is on the honor role this quarter & she's been working on some
claymation to show her TV production class, as well as the rest of the school.
This Halloween we overloaded on candy (big surprise). I mean the adults,
not the kids (no surprise). Hannah dressed as the Corpse Bride. Matt & Nik
were Megaman & Megaman X. Can't remember who was who. Not because they are
identical twins, but because we can't tell which Megaman is the "X." Jonathan
tried on almost every single hand-me-down costume & ended up as Eeyore for half
a day, & later Spiderman.



THE SUPERDADS

Yosi's & his band, The SuperDads (G-Wiz, Rodeo Joe & Mr Scott), have
been on "the road" on & off in the past two months. The big _PNC Arts Center_
(http://www.kidsdayweekend.com/) gig was rained out. Yeah, we were just as
disappointed as you were, folks. However, we played the next, not-so-rainy day
at the Red Bank Children's Cultural Center. The was loads of fun! Once Yosi
returned from his family vacation, The SuperDads joined him at _The Jewish
Museum_ (http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/site/pages/event.php?id=338) in NYC!
...and a good time was had by all!
Two days later we packed into the van & drove down to Washington DC for
(an unadvertised) concert at _XM Satellite Radio_
(http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=116) ! This was an hour
long performance recorded
before a live studio audience (like Happy Days). It's a rockin' kids
concert featuring Yosi's original songs from his three CD's & a brand NEW,
never-before-heard ditty, "Chicken Noodle Soup" from his upcoming CD.
It will air COAST-TO-COAST on NEW YEARS EVE & NEW YEARS DAY!

So catch Yosi & The SuperDads live at The Rumpus Room on _XM Kids_
(http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=116) (XM channel 116):
