Purim, Passover, and Easter

We had quite a few holidays come all at once.  This year we have been better at celebrating both the Jewish and Christian Holidays and with it some sweet memories have come from it that I would like to share.  The interesting thing was that each Holiday celebrates miracles.  It was a month and a half period to really reflect on my own faith and the miracles that happen daily in my own life.

PURIM

The kids celebrated the miracle of Purim by dressing up and we all went to the Chabad Center on a Passport to Purim party.  Rachel was Queen Esther Lalaloopsy, and the boys well they just had fun :)

PASSOVER

We don't have pictures of the Sader but we have pre-pictures.  This was our first Sader as a family and the first time Chris has attended one.  I will never forget when poor Rachey took the biggest possible bite of horse radish.  They did great but at the Chabad it lasted about 2.5 to 3 hours and thats hard on wee ones.  For me it was a very special night.  I hadn't done a Sader in years.  I forgot the joy of being together, sharing prayers, singing songs, etc. 

EASTER

Easter was a perfect way to end the end of the Holidays!  That day was Stake Confernece which is when several LDS Congregations meet together.  Afterward we had a great dinner where my family attended, and Chris' family made it for dessert.
