Annual Trick or Treat

Our weekend started on Saturday morning with a soccer game - with gale-force winds and chilly temps! But, this crew was excited to be together.

Connor played a great game!! These crazies created a blanket-fort.

Then we got to go to Aunt Michelle's house to warm up and eat brunch. Chloe and Linlee had a good time together :)

Then, we headed to the pumpkin patch!

This was a new thing at the pumpkin patch: inflatable horses. Bill challenged Kevin (who couldn't turn him down) and the video I took is HILARIOUS. Ask me to see it, and I'll gladly show you. My dear husband asked me not to post it on the world wide web. ;)

Chloe was the perfect size for the smaller horse - check out her look of determination!

I think father & son look a lot alike in this picture!

After a quick break and dinner, we got ready for trick-or-treat!

Chloe ~ Belle

April ~ Princess Frostine, from CandyLand

Peter ~ a reluctant Thomas the Train

Linlee ~ smart baby who skipped the cold :)

What was the best part of the weekend? Seeing this little chickee being baptized, welcoming her into the covenant family! We had a fun family lunch afterwards :)

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”. I handed over my rent check and moved to her house in late August. September came and a fellow freshman had a mental breakdown and her bed was now available to me…… So, after 3 weeks of living with Mrs. Hohman I moved out....
