Passover-- take 2

I'm not sure why, but this photo got deleted from the last post and I can't figure out how to put it back in that one, hence the 2nd passover entry.

ANYWAYS, this is the Seder plate that tells all the plagues. Dudi's mom gave it to him and we were able to use it for our Passover meal. It was really helpful! Notice the bone, it is from the boys galactic hero set. Worked like a charm.

Passover Seder


This is my husband.
I call him Dudi. That's his name in Hebrew.
He came home from work early. No, he wasn't sick and I wasn't sick. He wanted to get ready for the big night. A night he probably anticipates more than Christmas... Passover evening.
This is a fairly big deal. Costumes, the Seder program, and the food--bitter herbs and all.

Maybe I should explain a little.
He's been to Jerusalem a couple times, he has taught Hebrew, and he has a Masters in Hebrew Bible. So yes, you could call it a hobby, or something like that.

Well, it was our first go around having a family Passover Seder. It is really a multi-hour process, but due to the age of our children (okay, and me) we condensed it to about 40 minutes.
I was so excited (and relieved) that the kids really enjoyed it.


Micah tried EVERYTHING that was given to him. He participated and loved the program and learning the reasons for the food that we ate. Dudi was so happy (good boy, Micah).

Yes, we know only the boys are suppose to wear the Kappas (hats). Do you really think Liv was going to pass on an accessory though?
Liv and Asher didn't want to try most of the food, but they were all over the grape juice!

It was really fun and a great way to teach the kids the story of the Passover. Now they are set for the Easter Story.
