It has been so long since we've posted...so sorry! Life has been a little crazy here. Dan has been extremely busy with his job, I've been busy keeping up with the kids and being pregnant, Josh has been busy in preschool, and Maggie has been busy keeping up with Josh, and daily adding to her vocabulary. Josh and Maggie have had so much fun celebrating Halloween. They had a great time helping me decorate for Halloween by making little paper pumpkins to put in our window. At school Josh did lots of fun Halloween activities and went on his first field trip to a pumpkin patch.

We had a fun filled Halloween week. On Monday for Family Home Evening we carved a pumpkin. Josh didn't like touching the guts, but Maggie sure did! Our church had a trunk-or-treat on Tuesday, then Josh got to dress up at school on Thursday. Friday we had a party with some friends at our house, then Saturday we went up to Grandpa and Grandmas and celebrated Grandmas birthday and Halloween German style. Yes, Germans do celebrate Halloween. They do it a little differently though, they all dress up as scary things, no cute costumes, all scary ones. When they come to the door they say in German "Sweet or sour" instead of "trick-or-treat." Here are a few pics from our fun week!
