A new year of school started with an 8th grader and Kindergarten. Their big sister is a freshman and their dad is a sophomore at Community College, just did not get their picture.

This year's candle light vigil was very nice. The host tried out the flying lanterns, pictured above. 
Here are just some of the luminaries for this year.


We celebrated Nehemiah for the 9th year. 


We celebrated our oldest turning 19!

Happy Halloween from our clan!
