Sukkot - The Season of Our Rejoicing

Are you ready kids!?! (Are we ready Holly?)

My long time friend, Jim Rickard, invited us to Sukkot in Pasadena yesterday. I'd never been to Sukkot, so I was really excited ~ even more excited that Holly and her kids came with us!

In brief, Sukkot commemorates the forty-year period during which the children of Israel were wandering in the desert, living in temporary shelters. The timing of this celebration and the Bible study I'm doing on the Tabernacle is incredibly fulfilling. I can't wait to participate in more Jewish celebrations! It's so freeing how the Jewish culture celebrates in dance. I've gotta get me some!

To top it off, I got to see Jim and Judy who I haven't seen in years. Now we're all friends on facebook so we can keep up with each other's lives. If you'd like to see more pics I took last night, become my friend on facebook. : )
(The pictures aren't good quality, but the celebration was!)

Hey! I need a pic of Jim and Judy!!!
