Invite my 43 friends to the 2nd annual virtual Hanukkah party!!

more importantly…I learn something every year from this group.

being a virtual guest at Segsy’s Hanukkah celebrations,

the timing wasn’t with me. And it’s not like I can ask to have Hanukkah delayed until I’m ready. :(

Sorry to have missed all the fun.

And I believe Hannukkah has already started but I have a candle lit and am joining in spirit.

but I haven’t posted much. Here’s my virtual chanukiah:

This was a fun goal and I learned from my fellow 43things friends too. See everyone next year!

With sadness, yet fond memories, I lit the last of the candles tonight. It was a very quiet night, just my wife and I. We ate a small dinner at a neat sandwich shop in town, then came home and watched a little TV together. Lastly we lit the Hanukkah candles and said the Bracha (blessing, prayer).

I love this holiday. We’ve had exciting nights and quiet nights. Long nights and nights we went to bed as soon as the candles burned out.

This was my families first Hanukkah and I can say that it was a wonderful success! See you all next year.

I am sorry to see Hanukkah go.

Thank you all for celebrating with me. It’s been fun!

See you back here next year!

I went to an event this evening in campus, so I got another lightning for free :P
On the way back I had to witness a line of Habad cars with their big Hanukiya on each car and loud, annoying music, disturbing what was a lovely night.

menorah photo to be posted later.

Tonight is the last night.

Ok who’s hosting the Christmas party???
