New Shofars

wilkinson4jesus — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 04:59:11 +0000

Today we got our mail and our package we ordered from Israel arrived. We were excited and it made for a fun day. We had ordered several Shofars from Talit.com They had sets of the three different types of Shofars for a great price. They were cheaper than many other places and the quality was great! There was the Yemenite Shofar that is the long and curly one, the straight one is a Gemsbock Shofar, and a small rams horn. We had one small shofar before but it was a harder one to blow. Judah and Serenity both managed to blow it pretty good inspite of that. The deal from Talit.com or jewisheart.com was a good one and they shipped the order fast! Theyeven included a free soft cloth bag for the Shofars and a free pen with a pull out prayer as seen in the picture below. Hope you enjoy this couple minute video clip.
Blessings!

The “Pimsleur” Method?

Has anyone out there tried to learn a new language using the “Pimsleur” method? It is an audio based method and sounds interesting. We would like to try a Spanish class as a family just for fun, but we are not sure about the best methods to try. Any thoughts or past experiences you could share would be great. Thanks…

Water Pump

Yesterday we stopped by a state park campground by our home where we sat by the river and had a snack and a fun time relaxing for a sabbath afternoon. The campground had a hand pump set up to draw water from. We had fun playing with the pump so everyone could get a drink. It was refreshing for a hot day, after having so much rain this summer it was a welcomed change. It is still amazing how some of the simple things in life can bring so much fun. I made the picture with a program called comic life that I got from the apple app store, it is a fun and fairly simple program to use. I also added a short video to the post too. Blessings!

Here are some pictures of the children blowing bubbles in April. It was a warm spring day and the children had fun blowing bubbles outside. We will have to do this again soon. In case you are wondering yes, that is snow on the ground. The temperature was warm and the snow was melting.

June Has Been Busy…

Hello Friends and Family,
We have been very busy as spring has sprung here in Alaska. Jerusalem is 7 months old now, and is getting around and will be walking before too long if she keeps it up. We have been remodeling a new bigger kitchen now that Jason’s arm is getting better. Here is a picture we made from some of our recent activities.
