Halloween

We started our festivities last night at the Downtown Rescue Mission Fall Festival.  This will now become a yearly family tradition, because the kids had such a great time and learned so much.  They were able to give out candy to trick or treaters and help serve dinner to those in need.  It makes my heart happy to watch my children serve others willingly.  The DRM serves around 600 meals daily to those in need.  If you are interested in volunteering, their website is http://downtownrescuemission.org/  Trick or treating for us tonight didn't go quite as well.  After three houses and 2 injuries, Chandler called it an early night.  Macie managed to fill her pumpkin to the rim and apparently consumed what couldn't fit in the bucket.  It is now two hours past her normal bedtime and she is still wide awake from the sugar.  Hopefully she will crash before long, but I am sure we will reap the "benefits" of all that sugar tomorrow!!  Happy Halloween!!
