I love this time of year....sweaters, pumpkins, scarecrows, beautiful leaves, and the list could go on and on. A little girl in my Sunday School class Sunday said," My mom won't let us celebrate Halloween because people are celebrating the dead." Well I agree somewhat and the little girls mother is from the Congo so it may be more frightening. I told her I did not celebrate the dead I just celebrated the candy. I love seeing all of the cute costumes and the little people. There are some very disturbing Halloween displays on my street...these people are celebrating the dead and ugly. I choose to celebrate the fact that I will have enough candy on hand for any sugar hangover I may need in the weeks surronding Christmas Village. So go forth and celebrate Autumn and the glorious display of God's love in the beautiful colors of the trees. I am going to go and have another cup of hot chocolate...Yeah!

I'm so jealous! We don't get fall around here. Our fourth season is called "Santa Anas" - hot winds and wild fires. That doesn't keep me away from chocolate, though!
Sophie looks so beautiful in this picture ... great color with her eyes!
I agree with Tammy on this one...beautiful and gorgeous eyes.
