Shabbat Shalom from the Park! 🌳 Tonight, the weather was too beautiful to stay indoors, so the girls and I packed up a picnic and walked to the park to welcome Shabbat. ✨

I’m absolutely loving these single-serve @welchs sparkling white grape juice bottles I stumbled upon today—they feel like such a special treat (park parents are glaring but they can bug off 🤣) The brain loves novelty- Combining familiar rituals with new settings or items is a fun way to keep things fresh and engaging. #themoreyouknow🌈
I hope everyone is soaking up this gorgeous weather and finding moments of joy and connection with the people you love. Wishing you all a peaceful and meaningful Shabbat! 💛

🌟 What an incredible morning at @jcczaleprescho

🌟 What an incredible morning at @jcczalepreschool at @levisjcc Today, we gathered for a schoolwide Shabbat sing-along that brought kiddos and staff together in song and spirit. 🎶💖 We sang blessings, shared smiles, and created beautiful moments of connection.

A huge thank you the incredible leadership and our wonderful families for making this celebration so meaningful. Your energy and participation remind us of the joy that music and community bring into our lives.

Here’s to more Shabbat mornings filled with love and light! 🕊️✨ #ShabbatShalom #JewishJoy #BocaRatonFamilies #ShabbatTogether
