Rosh Hashanah

Last weekend was Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. We celebrated in Roseville at my grandparent's house, along with my aunt's family. Nicholas always enjoys seeing "Bom-Bom and Big Baba", as well as his cousins Ben and Aaron. Bom-Bom made a delicious dinner, which we enjoyed along with some readings by Big Baba. Then we took a brief stroll to a small creek, where we threw bread crumbs into the water. This represented throwing away our sins.

Lexi fell asleep as we walked to throw our sins away


Big Baba does a reading before we toss our sins away


The three boys walk hand in hand towards home (notice Nicholas' festive Rosh Hashanah wear!)
