Camping with Family, It's Sukkot!

It's that time of year again, when we go camping for a week to celebrate the Holy days of Sukkot!

...rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days. Leviticus 23:40

We live in "temporary dwellings" (or sukkot) for seven days, then on the eighth day, we gather and have a big party. It's just a few days away!

How is Sukkot this year? SHOFAR so good, it's "in tents". LOL.

I've been blowing my "shofar" or trumpet each day to call the assembly. My personal assistant has been carrying it around for me.

One of our fellow campers shot a deer with a cross-bow and we all shared the bounty. It was delicious.

This is also known as a "feast" day, and yes indeed it's a feast.

we play some games at night too, very fun. Breakfasts are great too.

Meals are quite the production, but totally worth it.

It's day 5 of 7, plus the eight day. Then we pack up and return home to our own beds.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

I didn't know about this celebration. In the first photo, you look happy holding your little one. It's easy to deduce how happy you are with your family, which by the way is beautiful. Take care of yourself.

I love it! We're also enjoying the Feast of Booths! We're staying in tents in our pavilion. We have 4 of them because the kids all want their own (including a hammock). Ha! I'm sleeping on a mattress, so we're not doing hardcore camping. At the beginning, 3 kids from the neighborhood also stayed with us, but they got sick and ended up staying home after 2 nights. We have had fun. Had a cookout the first night with our neighborhood. The dogs wanted to talk to us one night, the cats chose another night, and one night it rained from 12 to 6! It has been a lot of fun. I always love seeing photos of what you guys do! Blessings!

Sounds like a great trip bro, honestly i prefer living in a tent and would happily do so again as i lived in one for many years, it is freeing, close to nature just perfect for me personally.

Enjoy your holiday

I lived in a tent like that, even with a rug out front too, for a time when I lived in Austin. It sounds like you're having a beautiful time, my friend. Enjoy the rest of your Sukkot. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
