Rabbi Greenbaum is Coming!




I have been waiting for this week for so long and now it is almost here. My "Rabbi", Reb Avraham Greenbaum, will be flying into Alabama on Tuesday, Nov. 11. He will be here for 2 days and I am so excited. Reb Avraham will be speaking in Birmingham on the 11th and the 12th. We will be going up early on Tuesday to pick up the keyboard that we rented for him. He plays and sings so beautifully! We will be there to greet him on the 11th and will most likely be with him all day on the 12th. This should give us so much time to soak up all of his wonderful teachings and to ask and get answers to many of our questions. Rabbi Avraham is so welcoming to Jews and Gentiles alike. I will try to post photos and details of our visit on Thurs. or Friday. Can't you just feel my excitement! LOL

Shavua Tov!

I Voted!



Right after lunch, Bruce and I made the journey down the road to our polling place. I feel that this is possibly the most important election that I have ever participated in.
I am very concerned about the outcome ....but I also know that ultimately it is in God's hands...so I voted...but I put my trust in Him!

Now........ we wait for the results!

Charlotte's Web


Today, Clemmie and I went to the Alabama Shakespeare Festival to see "Charlotte's Web". We had a wonderful time. It was such a delightful production. After the play, we went to Zaxby's for lunch and then made a stop at TJ Maxx before heading home. It was a great day!

"BEREISHIS "...... Moshav video




"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness."

I thought that this would be appropriate, since it was this past week's Torah portion.

It is also my favorite Moshav song!

Hope that you all enjoy!

Shavua Tov!!

Our Lulav and Etrog!













This is our Lulav and Etrog. We have used them each day of Sukkot except for Shabbat.
I love the smell of the etrog. Bruce wants to save the seeds and hopefully grow our own tree. He also plans to root the willow and the myrtle.
















As you can see by this photo, Buddy has totally been a part of our Sukkot celebrations. Each time that we have gathered in the sukkah, he was never far away! See him right behind Alex. He especially loved the fact that we ate two meals each day in the sukkah. LOL
