What a great night the kids had tonight! We broke old tradition! Mikayla suggested a scavenger hunt this year instead of trick or treating! The rest of the kids were in agreement so we got some candy and "prizes" and instead of a scavenger hunt, Jason mowed a path down at the north of the property and we put the candy and prizes along the trail for the kids. They had a BLAST!!!! Colby just thought what we did tonight was the greatest thing since sliced bread. They had their little Halloween flashlights (remember we live in the country so it is VERY VERY dark outside) and they did their best to follow the path as Jason and I walked behind them picking up the empty buckets. Next year we will have to try something different to make it a little bit easier for them but overall they really had a good time and said that they wanted to do it again next year. It sure does save on the expense of a costume and all that. My SIL suggested that they be the 3 blind mice and Briana be the farmer's wife, I thought it was a great idea (thanks Jodi) but Briana just couldn't be talked into being a farmers wife so....we talked about it at dinner one night and that is when Mikayla made the suggest for the scavenger hunt. We did a trail hunt instead! Anyway...I hope that you all had a safe and fun Halloween!

The carved pumpkins were really cute except the one that had "17" on it, what's up with that?? Really the number IS "24".......TE HE!! Looks like everyone had a good time and were dressed to be warm. The pictures are great, it's so fun to see the kids and hear about what's going on with them. Thanks for sharing.
Our love to you and the "gang".
