October is one of my favorite times of the year. I love to see the maple trees and oak trees turn beautiful colors. We live in a mountain area with lots of beautiful trees. The reds, oranges, yellow, and purple leafs along with the stubborn green are one of the reasons I love this time of year. It doesn't last long enough though, its almost like a good movie, once it draws you in, its gone. You have to wait for the sequel. It starts getting cold, but not to cold, and then there is all the little children that come begging for candy. We always enjoy that.

This October is going to be extra special though because our Nephew is home from Iraq, and he will be back with his family this summer.

Welcome home Jeff

We are so glad you are home. We thank

God for taking care of you.
