Rebecca's Bat Mitzvah (& Magic Show) <------WATCH VIDEOS!
Well on the 3rd of March my cousin, Rebecca, celebrated her Bat Mitzvah.
This was the most unbelievable event I have ever attended and not to mention a complete blast!
My father, brother, sister and I hung out on the Friday night before... went to dinner and then back to the hotel. My sister, who has been living in israel, brought us back some fun presents. For my brother, a magic kit. Now, naturally, we don't REALLY need directions for a magic kit. We should just be able to figure it out. I haven't laughed that hard in quite some time. If you check out the video, you can watch Ben The Great perform the amazing bottle trick. Well, at least his interpretation of it!
The next morning was the Bat Mitzvah which was just beautiful. Rebecca was absolutely amazing and I could tell all of the hard work she and her parents put into this moment. We weren't permitted to take pictures in the Synagogue so you'll have to just use your imagination!
That evening was the party of a lifetime. There was
an 11 piece band with dancers. There were hundreds of thousands of jelly beans and a million tulips all over the entire banquet hall. There was... well, you just name it and it was there. There was a fun play room for the kids with a lot of different activities for them! It was just amazing.
Unfortunately, my sister had to leave early back to London so, enjoy these shots, Sar!
All of these pictures are both mine and Sarah's. Her camera is WAY better and man does she know how to use it! I placed a SK next to all of her pictures. Nice work, Sar.
In any case. It was an amazing weekend... wonderful to have the whole family there. It was great to see Grandmom and Butterball (my grandfather) too.
Thanks so much, Matt & Liz for having me there and for everything.
I know, not much info, but the pictures speak for themselves!
Enjoy.
Smiles, Jess

Coolest MomentI had no idea this was here and stumbled upon it. It is a statue depicting the Irish coming off the boat to America. It was absolutely amazing.
