Wow….am I tired!! You see, our family celebrates the Feast of Dedication - or the Feast of Lights - or Chanukah/Hanukkah :-) … we have chosen to celebrate not only the Feasts of the Lord in the Bible, and have included tis historical festival as well. What a beautiful time it was … last night with the candles all ablaze throughout the house….two menorah’s all lit up - shining their lights thru out the house …. little eyes dancing in the half lit rooms….it was so amazing……

Hanukkah Play 2007I have 6 little grand daughters….from my two favorite sons…..and this was our ‘first’ real Hanukkah - my oldest son gave the narration of how we celebrate the LIGHT of the world, how the Light was first conceived at this time and it was such a wonderful blessed time!.
I had a wonderful dinner set up with special cornish hens for each person (even the kids had an individual hen!) Not that they ate it - but they sure enjoyed acting like adults. Then we had the lighting ceremony of the last candle in the menorah … and of course one last gift to share with each other. What a blessed night….oh I said that :-)

Anyway, the meaning and closeness we shared last night was worth a hundred xmas’ put together….

blessings to all

Pam
