Passover

Image
Image
ImageSunday we celebrated Passover. This is the second year that Kevin has done this and our family has really enjoyed it. The kids were so excited to get home from church and celebrate passover, Alyssa would tell people that we are "passing over." Kevin made homemade matzah (unleavened bread) that all of us really like.


ImageWashing of the hands
Image
Eating of the bitter herbs (parsley dipped in salt water)Image
ImageBesides the matzah, the other favorite is the 4 glasses of sparkling grape juice (and they love the game of the hiding of the matzah)

Hailey loves to scrunch up her nose and eyes, give a big toothless smile, and then giggle - she gets others to giggle with her:)Image

Hailey found her tongue a few weeks ago and loves to play with it.Image
