Rachel’s Bat Mitzvah!

Rachel’s Bat Mitzvah last weekend was a blast!

Here’s a sampling of some of my favorite photos:

the day began bright and early with some family portraits at temple Emanu-El in Oak Park.IMG_9775.jpg
could this family be any cuter? πŸ˜‰

the evening party was held at Hotel Baronette.  They decorated the ballroom with life-size renditions of many popular magazines – re-imagined, of course, starring the bat mitzvah girl!  Such a fun, creative theme!
