the car; baby's first hanukkah

This is the car that was allegedly hit by an allegedy drunk driver. Well, it was definitely hit. Now the tire is flat and it sits sadly in the driveway.



On to happier things. Before the Christmas season, we lit candles for Hanukkah on most of the nights. Here is our little hannukiah, which we bought with wedding money in Haifa. In this country only birthday candles will fit it, however, and they burn quickly. This is probably not a bad thing. On the left in this picture next to the lighter you can see the little book Lilah made at school called "parts of a mammal."





Songs were sung. On night 6, I believe, Tal and Ady joined us for levivot (latkes). They were really good, and even M ate some despite his low-cholesterol lifestyle.

This was my poor attempt at being artsy, photographing Abba and baby through the birthday candles. Happy belated holidays to all; next up, Christmas.
