"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

Halloween 2015

We split our Halloween celebration into two nights this year as it just helped to break up the craziness of trying to get everywhere Halloween night.  So, on Friday evening after dinner, we headed over to Erik's parent's to trick-or-treat over there.  It was nice to be able to stop and not feel rushed.  We collected our treats and took some pictures, and then headed home.  When we got home, we quick changed out of our costumes and then headed up to the WRC as they were having an open house with bounce houses, open gym, swimming, etc.  So, we headed up there with my parents to burn off some energy for a bit before heading home.

Saturday when the kids got up from their naps, put on our costumes and then headed over quick to see Henry and Geneva.  We visited with them for a little while and then returned home so we could eat dinner.  After dinner, everyone got their costumes on again, and then we walked around our neighborhood to trick-or-treat a bit.  When we had finished with our neighborhood, we loaded up in the car to do a couple other houses before ending up at my parent's house!  Kyler and Norah of course knew what to do when we went to the houses, Grace really started to get the hang of it and really liked the idea that she was getting chocolate in her bucket. :)  It was a fun evening with R2D2, Snow White, and Miss Kitty. :)  

All ready to go! (Side note: Norah's costume is actually one my mom made for me when I was little) :)
