Brent & Buffy did another spectacular job at hosting our annual Halloween Party! There were so many good treats, some great costumes, fun games, and just great company. And, of course, the evening was topped off with Brent & Buffy's exciting news. Thanks again!

Unfortunately, both Isaac and Morgan crashed hard that night - coming down with fevers and coughs. They are home today, totally lifeless. Isaac has Districts this Saturday, and all his coach said to me was, "Get that kid healthy. I need him." I am doing my best. Washed 4 sets of sheets today to try to keep this bug from spreading...and I feel like I am walking around with a tub of clorox wipes tucked under one arm.

I have to give a talk on traditions - and how they can strengthen family ties. If anyone has some great traditions to share or some other insight, please share.

I'm off. Hope everyone is well and staying healthy!
