Chanukah begins!

Chanukah set up

We missed lighting the menorah on the first night of Chanukah because of the holiday party, but we resumed on Day 2!

We went to see “Honk” (Shakespeare Santa Cruz’s holiday production based on the Ugly Duckling story) with HAKT and Heather’s dad Dennis and then reconvened at our house for latkes and the menorah lighting.

We did a small gift exchange. The girls made us some ornaments…

Dylan gave the girls the treasure boxes he’d painted for them.

Chloe was content to watch the candles for a second (or maybe 2) before she just wanted to gnaw on the wooden ones!
