Hannukah 2014 was a whirlwind of candles and presents, latkes and donuts and dreidels, family and fun, singing and traditions. Aidan, you really are learning to spin a dreidel with ease. You even brought it to Show and Tell! Julia and Aidan, you both got to light candles by yourself! As we continue to learn, fire is hot!
So many precious moments shared with this whacky holiday. Some of them are immortalized in the following photo-splosion:
Because of your insistance on being naked, we renamed the holidy "Ha-nakey-kah" for many nights. It is dangerous to be naked so close to hot wax, but some lessons have to be learned the hard way.

| A SLINKY! |
FROZEN PANTIES! Julia, you were so happy that you had to carry a dozen pairs of Frozen panties around with you all over the house.
Aidan, Mimi taught you how to make a Slinky 'walk' down the stairs...at a rapid clip.
DONUTS! As we all know, donuts are best eaten in this order: icing; filling; trash the rest.
Or, for the beginner, just licked...
Spinning the dreidel never looked so good! Next year we'll start the gambling!
DOUBLE DREIDELS!
Before you know it, the candles are burning low and another Hannukah has come and gone. But the memories of fun, family, and FIRE remain like the smell of long-since eaten latkes in a house with no ventilator over the stove.
