"Humpty, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas!"




Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the Kings' horses and all the Kings' men, couldn't put Humpty together again.


“Are you a good witch or a bad witch?...Oh, I'm not a witch at all! I'm Dorothy, from Kansas.” "Close you eyes and tap your heels together three times. And think to yourself, there's no place like home.”

So on Halloween night Humpty and Dorothy visited all grandparents and absolutely loved taking their picture with their special 94-yr. old great "little grandma" (you can tell by the smiles!). The highlight of the evening for each was as follows:

Humpty loved seeing the grandparents and decided he doesn't like traditional trick-or-treating because some houses decorate with ghost and goblins and that frightened him. Despite waking up feeling a little under the weather, yet determined not to miss his class party, he thoroughly enjoyed the school costume parade and class pizza party the best!

Dorothy loved every minute, she just didn't didn't like toting Mr. Toto around...he stayed in the car the majority of the night. She skipped down sidewalks, doing her best to keep up with the older ones. And if you listened closely you could almost hear the theme song from the Wizard of Oz as she skipped down the yellow-brick (oops, gray-concrete) walkways!

Daddy loved the homemade popcorn balls we get every year from Miss Patsy - he conned us all into giving him ours - not sure how he did that, actually, but he did!

...the memories created and pictures taken were Mama's highlight.

"...Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces... I will now say, "Peace be within you."” (Psalm 122:6-8)
