Oh, October

October was gentle and sweet ... not counting a bit more divorce developments of course.  We had depositions on the 26th.  Next up is the final hearing in December. I am tired.

Thank you, Lord, for every single day's daily manna from you ... through songs, friends, provision, family, Scripture, and favor.  And this lovely mild fall you have gifted us with one last time on our hill in Bethpage.  So thankful.  

What follows are pics of holiday festivities like trick-or-treating, pie eating contest, fall festivals at church and school, pumpkin patches, campfire, and a haunted house run.  Also in October, Fall Break trip to AL, Noah's little car cleaning "business" he does with a couple buds, Lasa's Nature Glows school performance, Anna and buds on a photo scavenger hunt around town, Halloween Bunco for me, annual pics of kids and family (first year of family pic without Josh), cats we adore, dinner out with friends, Anna dress shopping, Noah buying a TON of Legos again, and somewhere in the photo drop is a shot of one of my groups of students from work - some cutie pie first graders.
