PURIM

I'm so behind on posts. Life has been busy lately and my children have taken to monopolizing my computer, so I'm just now getting around to posting these pictures from our Purim celebrations.

Purim is my favorite Jewish holiday - it's so fun to watch the kids get dressed up and make lots of noise to blot out that scoundrel Haman's name (Booooooo!!!).

We hung out at our synagogue for the Purim play.

Our rabbi dressed up as the "Esther Bunny" :-)

And then we headed over to another local synagogue for the Purim carnival. 

It was a blast!! Until next year Haman (BOOOOO!!!)

HAPPY HANUKKAH

From our family to you and yours - Happy Hanukkah!!!

We recently connected with the neighborhood synagogue and Noah had the chance to participate in the annual Hanukkah play. Here are some pictures from rehearsal and the performance at a nearby nursing home. It was pretty stinkin' cute!
