Happy Chanukah!

This time of year is pretty fun. In addition to getting a nice long winter break away from school and the opportunity to spend lots of time at home with mom, Hazel, and Turner, it's also Chanukah. Bubbe flew in from Atlanta to help us celebrate.

Each of us kids gets to take turns picking the candle colors for the Menorah. Most nights, we eat dinner by the bright candle lights of the menorah. Then we play dreidle and open presents. When Bubbe was here, she made delicious latkes that we all gobbled up.

Go Wildcats!
It was a pretty lazy weekend so that we could stay home, play with Bubbe, and play with our presents. One fun activity was we all watched the Kentucky basketball game. Kentucky won by a lot. Dad is pretty sure Papa was watching the game with us from Heaven.

The weather was reasonably nice as well, so Bubbe took Turner and me riding our bikes in the park. She was pretty impressed with how much we liked it.

The only downside of the weekend was that Hazel was a bit under the weather. But that didn't stop her from opening her presents!

Here are some pictures from Chanukah and Bubbe's trip.
