Sukkot apple picking

The weather has cooperated beautifully for the harvest festival of Sukkot. To celebrate, we took the kiddos to Homestead Farm out along River Road. Expecting a quiet morning out in the country, we instead happened upon about a hundred kids and their moms (and a handful of dads) from Washington Hebrew Congregation. Mommy knew the WHC rabbis, of course, so we hopped on the hayride, picked apples, and pet the animals with them. It was a perfect Sukkot!
