Trick, Treat and Sweet

A summary of last night:

DING DONG!

DING DONG!

DING DONG!

...well, you get the idea.. ;)

We had a fair amount of trick or treaters last night- and I loved the costumes and smiles.
I began the evening by answering the door with a Jar Jar Binks mask on, but after scaring the neighbor's son (he ran crying to his mom at the curb!)-- I took that off.

I still feel bad about that!

It was fun to see the costumes, but the sweetest was when I got two Fairy Princesses about 8 years old at the door, complete with glitter and wands.

As they were turning away to leave, one craned her head to read the little plaque I have over the doorbell button, with the scripture pictured above.

"Come on!" her friend urged.

"Wait, I want to finish reading the Bible verse." she replied.
And did.

I just liked that. Sometimes you put something up like that and see it so much you forget it's there. Kind of offset some of the negatvies that come with Halloween...
