2 - 30 Columbus Day - the best "Jewish Holiday" of the year...

On Columbus Day, we went here:





With these fun people:



Brian, Heidi, and Parker - By the way, isn't he just the cutest little bit of humanity? Just 3.5 weeks younger than Cal...



We saw this Familiy Plot: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow - Author



Cal loved the ride...don't you just love the hat...not necessary, but cutenone the less.



The kids loved the cannons we found. This was taken in honor of Grandma and Grandpa Cannon. (Note: Not sure what the cannons were protecting.)



A rare shot of Mom and baby enjoying a lovely afternoon with family!




Carson declared on the way home, "Mom, Columbus Day is the best Jewish Holiday there is!" And I had to admit, he was right.

(Note: In NY most Jewish holidays are celebrated with a day off of school, like Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah)

What great pics! Irving is actually buried on his estate: Sunnyside, which is just a few minutes south of Sleepy Hollow and I can get us in there free, if you care to go! My favorite photo is the one of you holding Cal -- too cute. (btw I have a Historic Hudson Valley membership -- so let me know if you want to visit any of the other sites as well.)

I love that hat too! Cal is getting so big, I just can't believe it. I think Columbus day is the best Jewish holiday too, they even have a parade and great Italian food!
