Carving the Jack-O-Lanterns

There's nothing new on the Henry front, other than we still have paperwork to complete... it seems never-ending. We're still praying for him many times during the day, and we continue to welcome and appreciate your prayers for him.

As October marches on, we're getting into the Halloween mood around here. Lincoln vaguely remembers Trick-Or-Treating, though the memory of that day is something we'd all like to forget. Our plan is to visit Boo At The Zoo this afternoon, and then we'll have fun with our neighborhood Trick-Or-Treating next Saturday. Pictures will be posted, for sure.With Halloween comes pumpkin carving! Lincoln didn't want to touch the pumpkin guts at all (nothing new). One of the funny things he said during our carving was, right after we poked the first eye out, "This is like a Jack-O-Lantern!" I said, "It is a Jack-O-Lantern!" And he just laughed and laughed.Here are some videos from the recent past. The first one is Lydia's first bounce on her new trampoline.Lincoln's loving the trampoline, too.This last video was from about a week and a half ago. Lincoln is "reading" his Franklin books from the library and jamming to Huey Lewis & the News.
