Passover and what's next!

We enjoyed learning and celebrating Passover the past few weeks. We did fun things w/ the 10 plagues, like making paper frogs and putting them in daddy's shower, sock drawer, and lunchbox. Last night we had communion together as a family. This was our very first time, but want to make it a habit. The kids were so serious and devoted to the occassion. We all silently prayed for forgiveness of our sins and for extra help in areas where we struggle. Next year I may be more elaborate in our celebration and serve the Seder dinner. I feel our family has grown so much closer to God and have learned more about His Word by celebrating the Biblical holidays.

Next is Kahula Hula! We're preparing for the HS group's International Dinner. We were goin to represent Israel, but that was taken, so Hawaii was next on our list. We got a Hula instruction video for kids at the library! So the kids are both doing the Kahula Hula! I found the soundtrack to match the video, so they're all set to perform. We also have grass skirts, leis, 9' palm tree! Bethanie is working on her display board w/ facts about Hawaii. We will take pineapple chunks and coconut macaroon cookies to serve at our table. Pictures will follow...
