Here is the Menorah that Nathan made in school.
On Friday night, we went to synogogue with Bubie and PopPop for the annual Chanukah celebration. Shortly after services started, my cell phone started ringing. I quickly looked at it and ran outside to take the call. Teri had been looking for Mom and Dad (who of course did not have their cell phones) to share some great news - Teri and Jamie are expecting their first child!! I interrupted Dad in the middle of cooking latkes to take the call, then went into the service, told mom to take the phone into the hall and say hello. By the time she made it back to her seat, she had told everyone in the rows behind us as she walked by them. We are all so excited for Teri and Jamie and look forward to having a new baby in the family.Although the kids didn't quite understand the news that night, they did want to go see Aunt Teri. When we saw her the next day, Nathan kept staring at her stomach trying to see the baby, then looked in her mouth and down her throat and was dissappointed not to see anything. He decided they should name the baby Fuddy. I guess that would be a good name for either a boy or girl? :) Nathan said he can't wait to babysit. That should be fun!
Here are a few more pictures from the Chanukah celebration. It was a late night, the room was extremely hot, but the kids did great.
Nathan couldn't get enough salad, ate his, mine and dads!
On Sunday night, we were honored to host once again the Kaster family Chanukah celebration. The kid each picked a name and got to pick out a gift for the person they chose. The kids had so much fun shopping for their gifts and were very excited to give them out.
Here they are lighting the candles in Nathan's new menorah.
Happy Holidays to everyone!
