Spring break

2014

This year instead of our annual School’s out trip, we went on a Spring Break trip with friends down to Pensacola, Fl. The weather was a little bit good and a little bit bad. But fun was had, dancing, bananagrams, yummy meals and always lots of laughs. One of the nice days here.

We were at the beach over Passover and Easter so we celebrated both in style and in tradition. The Passover Seder plate and table assembled.

Josh leading us through the Haggadah. All Goyim in attendance enjoyed the prayers and the symbolism. Lovely, lovely night.

We also got into the spirit of dying eggs. So much fun and just a wonderful array.

Beach time was sporadic, at best, as it was a bit chilly and windy a few days. But still great to just sit and to fish, of course.
