Every year for family home evening we decorate sugar cookies before Halloween. We started this tradition back in Missouri I think. Sugar cookies are easy, but I just don't think to make them a whole lot. We're more of a chocolate-dessert kind of family. The kids always love helping with coloring the frosting.
Reed, Blake and Rhett were still here and they joined in on the fun too. Well, not so much Rhett.
Lee had fun with the camera that night.
Oh, and one more shot from when the boys were here. Reed read a book to Blake one morning while the other kids were at school. So cute!
And the day before Halloween I went and gave blood. I am so grateful for the three units of blood I received during Elden's delivery. I literally would have bled to death if not for that blood! And Elden received many transfusions too while in the hospital. My friend Andrea and I gave blood several times in high school and I did a couple of times in college. I haven't given for years though, until there was a blood drive at my church in September. Hopefully I'll give several times a year now. The blood drive workers were even dressed up as vampires! Just kidding. But that would have been so funny...maybe a little scary.
