I hadn't been to Untermeyer's Grand Illumination in years and it was fun to go back this year with Judah. We hadn't been back since May when we got engaged and went over on Christmas night. The illumination is free (like the garden) and they have lights in the upper portion only (the rest of the garden is down a very steep set of stairs!). We wandered around for a bit before the cold got to us!
It was also the first night of Chanukah and so nice to see the menorah representing our faith as well! The illumination is simple but such a lovely display during these frigid dark months!Thursday, January 9, 2025

Chanukah Wrapped
It was a beautiful Chanukah. It was our first Chanukah together, and we had the chance to light with my mom and Noam, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law and her kids, and just by our selves a few times! We merged traditions on the order of songs after the blessings too which was fun.
May our lights from Chanukah continue to illuminate the world with how special Judaism is and how we matter in this world.

The Good. The Random. The Fun. v. 1
The Good:
Noam came in for a solo trip to see my mom and us! Fresh off the plane we took him to Zoo Lights and he enjoyed the hugest marshmallow and make your own s'more!
We spent a day in the city and had a good chuckle at all the NYE confetti flying around and stuck to the sidewalks, even 48 hours later!
The Fun:
We packed a lot of fun in over a few days! We went bowling on New Year's Day, went to the American History Museum, and walked around NYC a bit! He went to the Lego Store and minigolfin with my mom and did virtual reality gaming with Judah!
