They were on an impromptu road trip to see the Redwoods and Coast, and get back to GFU by 8:00pm (Sat) for one young man to go to work!!! I got the inquiring call on Friday at 4:00pm---mom can I bring some guys home tonite? (the answer to this is always YES) can we mooch breakfast and maybe stuff to pack for lunches----the whole trip had a $20 budget! Again the answer was yes. Doug and I served a pancake breakfast and sent the adventurers off by 7:30am, thankful to put faces with the names of new friends. Later that afternoon, we spent in the home of our dear friends to watch "the Ducks" and share supper. We were interrupted (expected) by a call from our oldest to pick her up at the Greyhound station. She will be renting a van tomorrow am to move some of her things from storage at our house (she's spent 3 years in Italy) to her new apartment in Portland. What a blessing to see my oldest and youngest in the same day! Oct 31st unfolded as my college son and 4 friends had arrived at 11:00pm Friday.

Our property is enough out of the way that I don't think we'll get trick or treaters. Hubby and I were going to go to a movie but nothing playing really caught our eye, so I think we'll rent one instead and stay home.

Fabulous. We've been super busy working on costumes. It was worth it, my 10 year old won first place today for her headless Marie Antoinette. We've got three that still need help trick or treating! One of us will be roaming the streets the other (ME) will be handing out candy. Have a great weekend. I love the new look! Fabulous.
