Fireworks and Costumes



 
Everyone driving through the Jewish hood last night saw quite a sight.  My African American neighbor is not Jewish, she is the protector of our building, called the police when she thought she heard gunshots.   Yeah not so funny in our modern times, but when she called the police later for the status, they told her it was fireworks for Purim.  She told me she was surprised she didn't know about it since we live next door.  If you look closely the girl next to me has a tag that says, Devil's Advocate Esq. and she told me her husband is a devil :)  This was my version of an angel, the theme for the adult party was Purim in Heaven.  The Rabbi's wife came as Whitney Houston, there were pilots, cowboys, bees, and a few super scantily clad bunnies?!#$%


At the children's party earlier, my kids had a blast.  For the first time ever my son wanted to get his face painted, one of his friends was a tiger, and he wanted that too.  In the picture above they are watching a fun show with a ventriloquist and magician.  My daughter loves being the favorite and only niece to her uncle who came to visit.  Today we all drive around to our friends houses and drop off gift baskets made with love.  My kids were excited to receive gifts from their friends.

Now we are off to enjoy a festive meal with our community,
Chag Sameach,
Enjoy Your Sunday,
Coach Yulia
