It’s the day after Christmas and we spent the day at my mothers helping family celebrate their holiday. It was a nice time, full of food and gifts and spending time with loved ones, while it wasn’t our day, it was nice being together. Our kids grew up celebrating Yule for a few years of their life, so it was nice seeing them say “Christmas isn’t our holiday, but it was fun.” We got a huge Kalorik Maxx air fryer oven and have been testing it out and so far, it’s really amazing.

We got my mother a new bed, she was so excited and it brought us a lot of happiness seeing her happy with it. My uncles were both there and my uncle Bill got us an adorable collectible Jewish Annalee doll from 1993 and we already have it displayed in our house and love it. The kids have been playing with their new toys non-stop since and I’ve ordered some new board games for family time and several new Jewish books I’ll be reading and adding the best ones to my recommended list here. 

A lot of new content is on the way here, including a review section for the books I’ve read, so check back often… so much more is in the works!
