Surviving AND Thriving

Seriously. What happened to us? You'd have thought we fell off the face of the earth.

Right now we are in the midst of probably our busiest weekend of the year. And we're taking it all in stride and enjoying every minute of it.

Last night was our annual Spooky Dinner. The tradition started years ago on Halloween night, but the kids were so excited to go Trick or Treating that they forgot all about the whole eating thing, so we moved it up a week.

The kids look forward to this every year and get so excited about planning decorations and the menu (and signing off cubscout requirements in the process!!) and choosing the perfect costumes.




And now we're off, busy preparing for the Primary Program on Sunday and the Church Fall Festival tonight. Just call us "Busy."

Great costumes. Love the themes. Just trying to decide if I like Anna better this year or last. I really liked the buns...
