Halloween

When we went Trick -or -Treating, Luke took the bag he had at school and it was already fairly full of candy. We stopped at a friends house and the man answered the door then Luke did a surprising thing. He reached in his bag and handed the man some of his candy. The man at the door was Ray Ledesma, we baptized him a few years ago. He was so touched by Luke's generosity.

I helped at Luke's school Halloween Party and went on the costume parade around the school. I was the last in line so we wouldn't lose any kids. When I would come into the room kids would start yelling, "Hey, Thing One, Thing One!" and they would wave at me. The funny thing was that it didn't just happen with the little kids. Even when we went in to the upper grades the kids would just have to get my attention by yelling "Thing One!" and waving at me. I really don't know why. Anyway after school Daniel had come to help me carry our giant Jack-o-Lantern home and I was telling him how funny it was that all the kids just HAD to wave at me. Just then a car drove by and a man (probably 30 or so) waved at me until I waved back. We laughed.


Mike was sore after hauling our pumpkins up from our garden. It really was a chore. Our biggest pumpkin weighed 78 pounds!
