Hanukah!!!

First night of Hanukah dinner!

obsessed with presents....asked all week "where is my present!"

Frozen panties!!! She was so excited!

new t-shirts whohoo!

This is the "man" as Brooke named him. Each night the man watched over our menorah but was quite silly!
 
This year Brooke was old enough to help light the candles and understand Hanukah...we tried to make sure she understood it was not just about the presents but that was hard with Hanukah and her birthday at the same time...she stills asks for presents!

HANUKKAH with Family!

all the Hanukah stockings!
This is a tradition on Ryan's mom's side of the family. Ryan's grandmother use to sew each sequence on the stockings. Each stocking has items that represent that person. Ryan's grandmother passed away last year but the tradition has continued with Ryan's mom (Mitzi) and aunt (Cheryl) making the stockings. At Hanukah everyone attending brings stocking stuffers...small presents...we then open each stocking one by one...a very unique Hanukah tradition!

Cousins!
