This picture tells you how busy yesterday was. It started out cleaning the church building in anticipation of Elder Holland's visit. Then, finishing and delivering a gourd basket order. Then back home for pumpkin carving and costume finishing touches. All the while, James working on building a shed in the backyard before the bad weather hits. Once when James stepped in the back door he said, "Did you know Hyrum has toothpicks in his mouth?" I was carving a pumpkin three feet away from where he was playing on the floor and I hadn't even noticed!

The kids ended up happy with their pumpkins and their costumes.

One thing we have found that makes trick-or-treating a little more meaningful is going to those people who may not otherwise get any trick-or-treaters but who joy in the little ones. Such a night may not fill their buckets, but we hope in the long run, it will fill their lives.
