Purim at Temple Sholom

Purim was super fun this year.  Purim is the story of how Queen Esther saved the Jewish People from the Mean Hamen.  All the kids dress up and it's a great fun celebration with lots of cheering and noise and parties.  Sophie had 2 princess costumes this year (from Halloween).   Here's little Princess Alice.  She walked around with her white rabbit and kept saying "I'm late, I'm late, I'm late...."

At school, Sophie's class did a Purim show and Sophie dressed as Snow White.  She was  fantastic in the show!  You have to see her sing all the songs.   A star....

The King and Princess on the way to the temple and then the Purim carnival.

Sitting in Temple listening to the Purim story.

Noah sang with the Kid's Choir during the Purim story.  He great in the choir, and has a good voice, great stage presence.  Who knows...maybe a future singer!

Let the games begin!

And some face painting....

At the end of a long day, both kids were tired.  But they had their first sleep over together.  Sophie slept in Noah's "normal" bed, and Noah slept up top.  See the little opening at the front of Sophie's bed.   She managed to fall out in the middle of the night (3a) and was found with her feet around the guard rail hanging head down (David slept in the room too so immediately picked her up).  She was fine, but we have to still be careful in a big kids bed!

More fun coming soon!
