Happy Halloween!
As you can see, Jeremy dressed as a puppy (a Swiss mountain dog, Fran's favorite breed) this year. And, as you can see, it was a hit with the ladies. Jeremy didn't go trick-or-treating this year (not much you can do with a Snickers bar when you only have 6 teeth that are all incisors and are allergic to peanuts...), but he did dress up for two parties, one with friends we know through Jewish Baby University and another with his class at Fisher.
Other news is that our sweet visit with Papa is drawing to a close. Papa has been working for the Obama campaign all month and was rewarded with front-row seats to see our candidate here in Denver (Jeremy and Mama tagged along too). We are grateful for his service to our country and to our family!

L'Shana Tova: Days of Awe
Happy new year! As we have every year for the past four, the Simon family attended Rabbi Jamie Korngold's (the one who married us) Rosh Hashana retreat: Hike, Bike, Yoga, Pray in the mountains. This year it was held at the YMCA of the Rockies, and we had the special treat of being joined by Jeremy's God parents, Diane and Charles. Jeremy had a wonderful time, being the nature boy he is, especially enjoying the children's musical program and blowing his plastic shofar! We also did a little program for Jeremy's daycare class for the holiday- Mama baked a raisin challah and we read a story about Rosh Hashana. All very well received.
