On a roll


I am having so much fun with Chanukah songs, so I am going to keep up that theme for all eight days.

Today, I share a 1999 recording from Tom Lehrer, who sang of spending Chanukah in Santa Monica.




Here are a couple of pictures from last night. We got started a bit after Noah had gone off to bed, and Joshua was at basketball practice. The whole family will be together on Sunday evening so I look forward to having some more to share.





In a little while we are heading over to Maya’s school for a 4th and 5th grade Chanukah concert. It is bitterly cold here today so we are spending this evening in our apartment but we will hopefully be able to make it to synagogue tomorrow morning and to lunch with Dina and Aaron and the children.

Stay warm!

Love,

Rebecca
