Blog 411

This blog was created for our friends and family who don't get to see us -- well, Jonathan and Elise, really -- as often as they'd like. I'm trying to keep you all updated on their milestones and their day-to-day activities. I also hope this will serve as sort of a journal for them as well, something for them to read when they are older that chronologues their lives and adventures. When I can, I'll post pictures and maybe even videos to help bridge the distance.

This blog is Part 2 of the Life of the Hardwicks. This edition will focus on our new lives in Atlanta, GA, that began in July 2013.

2014_12_17 Wednesday

From Elise's teacher: Today we discussed Hanukkah - discussed latkes, gelt, dreidels, story of how Hanukkah came about. We talked about how it is the first day today. We painted a menorah with our hands. We made the Star of David with Popsicle sticks by putting 2 triangles together. I read books The Hanukkah Mice and This is the dreidel. French teacher will bring work tomorrow and they will bring home!:)

I read X'sbook Spin the dreidel. She had a dreidel with it so we had a chance to talk about the game! I read Polar express from X. I read X's Curious George Christmas countdown. X brought Pete the cat saves Christmas.
Tell me something you learned about Hanukkah today: 
Elise- you play a game with a dreidel and you spin it and land on a letter like nun.
