The Jerusalem Center tree lighting:


On the hunt for a Bethlehem lookout:




An attempted photo shoot:





Hanukah latkes and donuts (not such a great addition to our health this season):

A mountain of gingerbread men and women (the treats are really piling up in our freezer):


Helping pack food for the needy at Pantry Packers:
