Birthdays and a New Year

Yesterday Alex and Ari officially turned 2 1/2 years old! To celebrate, we went to a big park in another neighborhood with friends Andrew and Mitchell, where we ran into "another Ari," Alex and Ari's friend from our summer concert series.

Also celebrating a birthday this week was Aunt Lori. Happy Birthday, Aunt Lori!

Today was the first day of Rosh Hashanah, so we went to services at our new synagogue for the first time. Since Nana is with GG in Florida this week, Poppy joined us at our services. Ari, Alex and Daddy went to the tot services while Mommy, Kira and Poppy went to the main services until the tot services were over, when Mommy took the kids home and Poppy and Daddy stayed for the remainder of the regular services. After a quick nap, we all went to Miri and Opa's house for Rosh Hashana lunch and the annual family photos.
