Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the conclusion of their tours in the US Army, Avi and Ruti Eastman converted to Judaism in 1989. In 2007, the Eastman family made aliyah to Israel from Baltimore, Maryland. With teenage sons and limited funds, the Eastmans were determined to be successful in fulfilling the Jewish dream of "coming Home" to the Holy Land. Little did they know that each member of the family would find his or her true path in ways they never could have imagined had they stayed in America. This collection of Ruti's essays continues the story started in "From Big Whine to Big Grapes." Sprinkled throughout with family history and a glimpse into Jewish life and Jewish holidays are hints about how to be a happy and successful family, and about one approach to fulfilling a purposeful life with a vibrant love of God's human creations.
