Our AWESOME friends from MN came to visit us in Ohio for Thanksgiving week. We had so much fun with them. We just LOVE being with them and hanging out. We went out, played games (A LOT of games), watched movies, had lots of talk time, went swimming, played football, went golfing in our backyard. We are so thankful for them and all our friends. What a great week!

Halloween was a BIG success. We love our neighborhood. Trick-or-treating starts here around 5pm. I love that! The little ones can enjoy the process before it gets dark and cold. The big kids can still trick-or-treat in the dark. Our cul-de-sac puts a big table up in the street and we all hang out together with our candy. Very fun! I also loved how most people were in their driveways with fire pits to keep warm, but it also made a great Halloween effect with the smoke and fire. We had a great time. We LOVE living here! Pics of our day and night are HERE.

I LOVE Halloween! My girls make it so much fun because they will be anything. In fact, the more original the costume the more likely they want to be it. I love it! Here are the pics of the girls characters and costumes.
