Yesterday was a fun day for our family! I have never been crazy about the scary part of Halloween or getting into all of that, but I do love the joy that comes from the kids getting all dressed up, playing with friends, and going to see our neighbors. This year was a little different, but oh so fun! Together with our small group from church we hosted a party here at the house for all of our neighbors. We rented a bounce house (which the kids ALL loved), we set up a few games for the kids to play to "win" candy (mummy bowling, bean bag toss, and basketball), we also had popcorn and some dinner. We had many friends from church come to help out and hang out, as well as the Crews family, and Emmy and Gumby with Leah and Mariah. We started the evening with lots and lots of bouncing, of course some powerwheels driving, too. After some hot dogs we headed out to Trick or Treat. Isaac's best friends from church were here with us, Luke and Levi along with their baby brother Titus, as well as Samantha, and cousin Mariah. As a group we all walked down the street to a few houses, the kids enjoyed saying Trick or Treat and seeing what great surprise they got. It was a lot of fun to experience the evening with these amazing kids! It was a great evening of hanging out with neighbors, new friends, and family. I am so thankful we are a part of a church that cares about community and reaching out to those around us.
