Lethargic Man (anag.)

It's been a while since we've had an adventures with the rabbits post. So what have they been up to all this while?

Well, mostly same old, same old. Here's Bar Navi giving a shiur to the other rabbits in the household:

But the most exciting piece of news is of course the wedding of the year, between Bar Navi and Jane. They held this immediately before the Wandering Jews event aviva_m and I hosted as part of our Sheva Berochos. All of the other rabbits in the household were guests (though none of the photos seem to have more than two or three in), as well as those who had managed to get to ours for Wandering Jews before Shabbos came in.

In this photo, you can see the happy couple at the right, along with Ginger and Monty, the other established rabbit couple in our household. The two white rabbits wearing taleisim are the witnesses at the wedding (and were a wedding present to us from curious_reader).

Under their chuppah, the rabbits exchanged ring equivalents. There's no insistence in Judaism upon a wedding being performed with a ring; it merely has to be something belonging to the giver worth above a certain value; which is most convenient when you're a crocheted rabbit with no fingers. So Bar Navi gave Jane a silver necklace with a silver carrot pendant; Jane gave Bar Navi a tallis clip also with silver carrot pendants. Here are the happy couple wearing them under the chuppah (with one of the guests visible in the background).

Of course, they had a kesuba for their wedding too, which you can see here, along with the becher used in the wedding service:

When you're a rabbit, your wedding bouquet (made, unknowingly, for the rabbits by someone at our wedding) can conveniently double as part of the wedding feast...

And here's a last photo before Shabbos of both happy couples:

Phew, what an exhausting day; time for rabbit bedtime [shot, of course, on another day]:
