Babies Shower for Liz and Lee
Saturday, December 28th, 2013We hosted a babies shower for our friends Liz and Lee, who are expecting twin girls in March. A late-December Saturday evening is a weird time to have a shower, but as a little surprise for them, I prepared a Havdalah ceremony to bring a little light and warmth to our evening. Havdalah is the ceremony marking the end of Shabbat and the beginning of the rest of the week, and Liz and our friends used to do Havdalah together a lot back in our Jewish youth group days. It was really nice to be together again for Havdalah, and extra special to have Becca join us from California via Skype, and sing harmony from 3,000 miles away!
