Halloween Weekend

We spent Halloween weekend in Little Rock again this year.  We met Mom on our way so that Rhett and Bogart could go to their house for the weekend.  We missed having R with us, but he wanted to go to Flippin to work on some projects with Dad, so he had a great weekend too.  We arrived in LR around 4:00 but didn't have dinner plans until 6:00 so we went to the Martins' house to hang out for a while.  It's always wonderful to see them--we miss them so much, and it's always super sweet to see the kids go right back to playing together as though they still see each other all the time!  And Crosby always goes straight for the pantry to get a package of fruit snacks at their house.  :) At 6:00 we were excited to get to meet the Miles for dinner at Larry's pizza!  We were so happy to get to see them/catch up!  They have two precious children that have grown a lot since we last saw them, and they are in the process of adopting a little girl from China.  We can't wait to see what God has in store for their family!  Thanks for meeting up with us, Miles family!  I also ran into another friend there--it was great to give her a hug too.  Then we drove to Hot Springs after dinner to visit with Lane's parents and spend the night there!  Grammy made a big breakfast Saturday morning, and Lance and Jennifer came over to eat with us before we went back to Little Rock for Halloween.

Back in LR...

We ate lunch at Local Lime & walked around the Promenade.

Then we went back to the Martins' house to carve pumpkins and watch the Razorback game.

While the guys watched the end of the game, Emily and I took the kids to a fall carnival for a little while before we all went trick-or-treating in the neighborhood.

It was lots of fun meeting up with our neighbors from the street we used to live on.  We miss them!

Alexee was so happy to see all the girls!

It was also great to be at our old church on Sunday.  I still miss it every single week.  We had lunch at Big Orange before we left town.  And as always, it was hard to leave.  

We were glad to get Rhett and Bogart back!  Here's a picture of Rhett working with my Dad on Saturday.  They had a good time together.
