Happy Hanukkah

Amidst this crazy Holiday Season, it's time yet again to pause for, well, another crazy holiday. Eight crazy nights of it. Since Hanukkah falls during the Christmas holiday this year, we decided to celebrate early to keep the two separate and to avoid the even bigger frenzy of gifts and the me, me, me and mine, mine, mine that comes with getting so many gift at one time. And that's just the adults. (Badum-dum!)

So we lit the candles and celebrated last week. I love that Hanukkah is the "holiday of lights" and that it falls at the same time when so many lights are up. Quite ironic, I think. And convenient for me since we celebrate everything at our house.

Lighting the first candle.



Happy Hanukkah, y'all!
