Update from the (brazilan) Labkowskis

Hi all!
We had a busy busy succos with lots of guests and nightly farbrengens till all hours of the a.m in our succa. Last year it rained tons, so this year I equipped myself with a box of disposable raincoats to give to guests, but Baruch Hashem it was an excellent segula for it NOT to rain. Everyone is back to their usual routine--school,choir practice for Mendele and Chonyale (they will be singing at the public Menora lighting) and ballet for Moussiale, and the Big news of the day....Shmuly started school!!! He is very excited everyday to go to " Mora Sarita." I would love to hear updates from around the world........especially from the cousins whom I hardly see...
