Last Wednesday, right after choir rehearsal, one of the ladies in the choir nudged me and whispered, "Do you know what's about to happen?"
"No..." I replied, thoroughly mystified.
She grinned. "There's a baby shower for your mom down in the basement."
Papa made up an excuse to get Mom downstairs, and she was completely surprised. She hadn't suspected a thing! It was so sweet of the choir, and completely made her night. :)

The Halloween parade was Sunday afternoon. Cecily, Gloria, Bjorn, and Rosemary were "Blond Indians":
Knut was a knight, with sheet metal armor he's been working on for weeks:
Thor teamed up with the Claytons, who went as Union troops from the Civil War.
They were quite authentic!

November will be a crazy month for our family! We have Bright Lights and His Lighthouse, Lyceum, choir, music lessons, drama rehearsals, tons of First Lego League meetings, the Lyceum choir concert, a concert in Okawville at which our family will be singing, two FLL conpetitions, Drama performance, and of course, school. Lots of fun!
So did you guys win? You said a Peterson or a Clayton always won the best costume contest!
