Well, Halloween wasn't too exciting this year, although plenty of fun. First of all, we were all kind of sick (I believe this was when the kids had strep/throat ulcers-maybe, but all the winter sicknesses blur together!) and didn't have the energy or chance to go to a pumpkin patch, but we felt well enough to drag ourselves to Walmart to pick pumpkins :)
Also, Halloween fell on Sunday this year and we don't trick-or-treat on Sundays, so instead I took the kids to a trick-or-treat activity at a nearby senior center with my mommy group. The kids had lots of fun and it's great to help people feel well. Sometimes, with little kids I feel I don't have time for service, but I love being able to cheer people with my little ones-it's the least I can do! All the elderly lined up in the hallways to pass out candy. Lindsey was shy but enjoyed it, and Justin enjoyed it-especially after he learned he could keep all the candy he was getting. He kept trying to give his pieces to the next elderly person in line! So cute!

Your blog is so fun! The pics are great and knowing the effort behind it makes it even more meaningful to see those smiles.
