This weekend our kids/grandkids in Texas sent us some pictures from their Halloween fun! The little ones looked like they had a good time. There was Jack Sparrow………..savvy? A pretty Dorothy……there’s no place like home. And a sweet baby owl! I wonder if he’s saying…… “Stop blowing holes in my ship!” I guess you better […]
