Tis the first night of Hanukah






And we all gathered at Gledhill

to light the first light








with Latkas, Doughnuts and Blintz Casserole too!
The families had gathered for
good times and good food
with only one of us missing

there was paper and ribbon and ripping and tearingand o
oohing and aaahhhhing but not very much sharing...
o.k. enough trying to rhyme.



The kids got into the ripping of wrapping paper.



Ashleigh just enjoyed being with her Bubbie.
So did Tracy

















I had made all the little people these cute funky little scarf/hood/pocket things

and then we had the infamous.... Leslie Slut Sweaters






o.k. so maybe they are not to slutty this year... and in some cases they are not even sweaters But they were all loved... especially since they came from Leslie and Bill.



The whole evening was great fun... especially when we got down to adult games. It was Calli's first year as an adult so Bubbie showed her what to do. How to do the white elephant and then what to do with the gift?

Calli did pretty good for the first time... Morgan you better ask questions cause next year your an adult....

Samantha on the other hand is in Israel (yes I know when isn't she in Israel) and she had Barry as her person to buy a gift for... so this is what she gave him and t if you need to know more... I guess you will have to ask.

but when the evening was done .....we were ready for bed.
