Does this guy look
ready for Texas or what? J

A friend of ours from
church dressed up as a chubby old lady. J She was probably one
of the warmest people there with all of those layers.

Part of the group
from our church that came to help at the event.

This
is a bit of a side note, but we are so thankful for our dear church family! We’ve
been at the church for several years now, but the Lord has really made everyone
truly feel like our family over the past few months. We have become especially
close to them over the past few weeks as they have encouraged and prayed for
our move. I’m really going to miss everyone!

I think there were
2-3,000 people that came to the event. Everyone lined up and walked down the trail
where we handed out candy, tracts, and cards with information about our church.
There was also free pizza, cider, donuts, cookies and popcorn, as well as
bounce houses, a petting zoo, and a hay ride to a pumpkin patch.
|
 |
|
We were constantly
busy filling more bags and handing out candy to the steady stream of people. It
was so fun to see the kids’ faces light up when we gave them a whole bag of
candy (most booths were only handing out one or two pieces.)

The weather turned
out perfect for the event. It was cool and crisp like fall is supposed to be,
but there was no rain and the wind was minimal.
|
 |
|
It is possible to
take artsy pictures on a moving hay wagon. Just so you know. J
|
 |
|
The hayride took the
kids out to a pumpkin patch where they got to pick and keep their own pumpkin.

Josiah with another
friend from church, S. I was really impressed with all the kids from church
that came. Despite the cold temperatures, they had very good attitudes and I think
they really enjoyed themselves.

This
event was lots of fun and I’m glad we had the opportunity to help out!
