April 9, 2007--Passover

Last Thursday we had a Passover Seder with my Dad and Mom's church and with our homeschool KONOS group. In KONOS we were studying the Love and Generosity unit and Passover was part of that, so we co-sponsored the event. We invited about fifty guests and rented a place for the evening. I was in charge of the entertainment. I thought I'd share a few pictures from the evening. In the first picture, the older girls (including me) are doing a dance to a Marty Goetz song called V'Ahavta. I choreographed the dance, and last week my sisters went to a Marty Geotz concert and got to dance it there. I thought that was pretty neat!

In this picture, Timothy is dipping his bitter herb (parsley) into salt water. He loved that part. He dipped it more than twice. I think he dipped it at least a dozen times. He'd lick the salt off and dip it again.

This is Jay asking Grandpa the Four Questions. He left the questions at home, but he remembered them so it all turned out okay.

Here is the Passover skit the Konos kids performed. In this picture, Pharoah is getting plauged by lice. You can see there are still some frogs around from the first plague as well. I know they look like green balloons, but they are actually frogs.

The children of Israel have crossed the red sea and Miraim has led the the women out to dance Shi-Ru (The Horse and the Rider He Has Thrown Into the Sea).
