As promised, here's some video from last weekend's baby naming. These were taken by Gramps with a regular digital camera, so it's not the best picture/sound quality, but it still may be fun to watch for those of you who either missed it, want to relive it, or just like off-key chanting.
First off, here's me reading from the Torah. I did 4 verses, and this is about half of it.
Next, we did an Aliyah. We had a cheat sheet in front of us, but Cher and I both grew up singing slightly different tunes at our respective temples, so it made it a bit tough. Cheryl sounded great, though.
Here's me talking about the meaning of AJ's name.
The Rabbi also talked a bit about the names...
... and then gave a special shout out to Grandpop.
Finally, the Rabbi said some words of prayer.
So that's how Avery got her hebrew name! Thanks for reading, and don't forget to vote in our new poll if you haven't already.

Very cool stuff - thanks for sharing! It was like I was in there seeing it all in person!
This was great reliving the moment. What is not here is Scotts great Torah reading. Thanks to Stefan for capturing this wonderful event
Love,
Grandmom & Grandpop
