Happy Halloween!

Here's our bumblebee. We did some early trick-or-treating at Great Grandma Landsdown's and at Great Grandpa Ellis's.

My d-group

Here's my discipleship group - all these wonderful ladies are seniors at Plainfield High School and I don't want them to graduate!!! :( They are all smart, beautiful, and extremely talented and I've been so lucky to have them in my group! It's been a privilege to watch them grow in their knowledge and love of Christ!
Luke adores them all, too!

Playing at Great Grandma's house

Maybe only my cousins and my brother would understand this, but there is this bucket of wind-up toys at my Grandma's that we used to play with.... I even went digging in the bucket to find a specific one (the gorilla that does back flips).... still works after ... um... several years.

Footsie pajamas are SO cute!!
