Happy Halloween!











The kids had a great time trick or treating with Daddy and Grandpa Dean! One whole block near us was a huge festival of Halloween decorations, food, and costumes. They had hot dogs, drinks, coffee, and candy! The kids got a huge pile of goodies which was dumped into the middle of the table and inspected. They'll be in diabetic shock for days.

Halloween is a great night to reflect on the sweetest things in life, things much sweeter than candy. Things like family, friends, and home. As we face kids dressed as demons this night, so do we face and overcome the monsters of day to day life. I love Halloween for all it' fun and fear, just as I relish all of life's joys and sorrows.
We have a family a lot like a Snickers bar - mostly sweet but filled with a few nuts! I hope you enjoy your family tonight and every night.
