Hanukkah is here! Right on the heels of Thanksgiving, Hanukkah kind of snuck up on us this year! Mama says the culinary gods are against her, as she can't seem to get away from cooking! The first night of Hanukkah is always exciting, as we brush off the menorah, fry up the latkes and sing "how many candles?" and "Dreidel Dreidel Dreidel." We got to celebrate Hanukkah with Grandma Jo via webcam; she watched us open our gifts and then run around like the crazy people we are. I got a new lunch box to match my backpack and Remi got her skates (yeah, she's already seen them, but she's little, you can still pull that kind of stuff off on her). The 2nd night I got a bunch of Magic Tree House books from my cousin Jayden (Thanks buddy! They are awesome!) And Remi got a new stroller, as her old one is no longer with us...
It's been so much fun lighting fires, decorating the house and just spending time together. Happy Hanukkah to all of those who celebrate!
Of course, the boxes are better than any gift could be
