2 Day Countdown

In two days we'll be nearing the end of Brennan's Bar Mitzvah.  We still have some things we are getting ready, but it's almost time to sit and soak in the moment with family and friends.  The clouds and rain are starting to make their way to someone else's back yard and leave nice sunny Arizona Fall type weather. 

Brennan is the most excited about the day almost being here.  I am so glad that he is looking forward to the day and is not one of those kids who feels pressure to go along with it just because it's what his parents want or worse...just for presents. 

Brennan seems very confident in his Hebrew.  He is excited to wear a suit with a cool shirt and tie (very colorful...kinda his "thing").  And every time he hears someone is coming he gets excited. 

Relatives that are coming into town are starting to let us know when they will be arriving.  We hope they all have safe travels.  Time to shop for a few more things needed...

Bar Mitzvah Information!

Changing gears a little bit, but it's time to start talking Brennan's Bar Mitzvah!

I found a wonderful locally owned hotel that will reserve a block of rooms for out of town guests!

The place is called The Clarendon Hotel and it is located about 4 miles from our house.  It's near the Phoenix Art Museum and Heard Museum.  It's also fairly close to our light rail. 

Here's the scoop:
