Happy Chanukah!

Chanukah started in early December this year.  Although our entire family was not able to all come together at one time, we were thankful we were able to celebrate several nights with family.  Here are some pictures from the first night we celebrated at my parents house (note: my mom's self proclaimed motto is "moderation in nothing"... 
Grandpa Bud and the Chanukah Gnome:
Grandma Judy and the boys:
Though he doesn't know the prayers, Teddy did try to hum along with us as we sang:
We celebrated another night of Chaunkah at Uncle Hal, Aunt Jenn, and Violet's house.  Teddy and Violet always have a blast together:
Did you know that legend has it a great Chanukah miracle occurred when the Chanukah Gnome made an appearance for 8 nights?
The above may quite possibly be my favorite picture. Ever.  And I have taken a LOT of pictures!
Our kids are so blessed to have so many loving family members.  They are also blessed to be spoiled by so many grandparents!  And one thing I am reminded of every single holiday is that EVERYTHING is more fun with kids. That includes toys.  Check out some pictures of Teddy with some of his new toys:
DJ Teddy took the mic, but only until his mom and dad got their turns playing with the coolest toy!
It's ok, we let him play with his tools:
Teddy's cousin Jack gave him a very special spider man glove.  Teddy loved it so much he insisted on sleeping with it the first night he had it. So funny! Here he is the next morning! 
Happy Holidays to All!
