Live from New York, It's Sader-Day Night!

Today all the local family was invited to celebrate the Passover Holiday at Sweet Donna and Uncle Ray Ray's house. The Sader meal was a first for most of the guests in attendance. It came complete with explanations of the items that were presented on our plate; the unleavened bread symbolizing the Jews quick retreat from Egypt, the bitter herbs representing the bitterness of their enslavement etc. Ray Ray lent his voice to a rendition of "Let My People Go" and the children helped with the story of Mosses and his plight with Pharaoh to, let his people go. All ten plagues were rained down upon us as Keira used props to send the message home, (the tastiest of all the plagues had to be the boils which fell in the form of M&M's). It was a enjoyable dinner with the extended family, and maybe a new tradition has begun... we can only wait till next year to see.

It was a very entertaining day, for sure! Glad you got all these great pictures. The ones of Heath with Caleb and Reed with Lisha are very cute. And how funny is the one of Tommy with Rachael and Olivia -- a perfect "Tommy" face!
