Logan's 1st Halloween

Kevin and I are enjoying all of Logan's 1st experiences. I am sure even more then Logan! Being Logan’s 1st Halloween Kevin and I talked over what traditions we wanted to start as a family.  The most important thing we decided we wanted to do was allow Logan to understand the history of Halloween.  Each year we will read a story/book explaining the history (age appropriate) of Halloween. We also decided every year we would love to come up with a way to bring light to others.  This year we went to Madonna Meadows with our dear friends and handed the residents homemade cards and bookmarks.  The kiddos were such a big hit! It really warmed our hearts seeing the residents faces light up as Elise handed them their gift and said, “I made this for you”.  Katie and I had fun planning our night together for our families.  I don’t think we could have planned a better night. I have a feeling this may become a tradition for both of our families.  I do pray that the verse we chose  for their bookmarks will touch their hearts. Looking forward to visiting them again in the near future!

My favorite part of the night! 
The whole squad!
Elise, the Little Ballerina Fairy Princess,
 giving Logan a little love. So sweet!
Logan received some Caksters from Mrs. Schurman...
he can't eat them yet, but he loved listening to the bag crinkle!
The CUTEST pumpkin I have ever laid eyes on!
He had enough of the pumpkin hat. 
Stopped by to see Aunt Tami. She had a couple of toys
waiting for Logan...which he loved chewing on! 
Happy Halloween/Reformation Day from our family to yours!


The Lord is my light and my salvation...whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life...whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1
