Happy Hanukkah!

it's the first candle of Hanukkah today! we all went shopping for a menora at Target, but their selection was very poor (only two, and no candles!). i was almost at the point of giving up or buying a $40 electric menora, when i remembered our old family tradition.

every year we kids would build a LEGO menora, and use it to light Hanukkah candles.

a couple of times we set the kitchen on fire, but otherwise it was lots of fun!

so this is our menora this year :) and i just put out the candles to not reenact the rest of the tradition.

Happy Holidays!
