Purim!!!

Purim was, of course, a hustle and bustle and fun-filled day.  I gave up on trying to get a picture of all 5 kids at once, and instead opted for individual shots.  Yisrael was a כהן גדול - part of his costume was borrowed and part (the חושן, ציץ and מצנפת) we made ourselves.  Bruria was מלכת אסתר- and of course her favorite part of dressing up is that I let her have makeup!  AS and Naftali were clowns (just like they are the rest of the year) and Nissim was an adorable pudgy monkey (thanks for the costume, Bubbie!)

The biggest excitement this year was that for the first time, Tatty dressed up too!  He was quite a sight- and a scary one too!  Poor Naftali was petrified of Bentzi, even after we showed him it was just a costume!  Eventually he did calm down and even enjoyed trying on the mask!

Wishing you could have been here to share the fun!
