We had a nice Hanukkah this year - The boys thoroughly enjoyed having EIGHT nights of presents, that's for sure! By the third night Sawyer had gotten the hang of it and was announcing "It's dark! We get to open presents!?!" They learned pretty quickly that as long as there were still candles to be lit that they got to open a present each time. We tried to keep it pretty simple in the present department since that adds up to a lot of gifts, so they got a couple of new race cars, some new books and coloring books, Moon Sand, puzzles, and I honestly can't even remember what else anymore...with this many presents all in one week, it all kind of starts to run together lol. I'll be glad next year when Hanukkah doesn't overlap Christmas and we can enjoy it on its own a little more. I did attempt to make latkes this year though! I totally nailed the perfect taste, but they came out too thick and more like potato haystacks than pancakes. Oh well...next year!

A new Batmobile!

Sutton got a giraffe play tunnel, and the boys have been going crazy over it ever since
The night that Sutton got the tunnel, Sawyer got a toy called the Honeybee Hop. It all started out nice and orderly, and then they realized it was WAY more fun to run away from the honeybee than it was to try to jump over it...
