Haunting with the Hunts

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love how excited my kids are to have fun. I love helping them create their costumes each year. I love Halloween parties and fun. The candy is yummy too. Hope your was great too!

Ahha!

I bet you thought that there would never, ever be another post on this blog. Well, I guess that I tricked you then.

Margaret

Hi Family and Friends,

I share the following information with you not for sympathy but as a means of informing as many people as may come in contact with Margaret as possible to know about her.

After almost 2 and a half years of being seizure-free, Margaret experiences another seizure episode early this morning. It lasted for about 10 minutes. She is back on her anti seizure medication. She is doing well and few people would have ever known that she eas even seizing. I am so grateful that Jeremy was inspired to know that it was happening again because this seizure was very different from her others.

We'd love to talk to any of you about her seizing and realize that the more people that come in contact with her and know of her condition the better. It could save her life. We love you all.

Jack O Lantern FHE

For FHE, we carved pumpkins. I was sure that they would do well being carved because there were only two more weeks until Halloween. Great job carving pumpkins, boys! Unfortunately, they did not make it to see Halloween at all. Nonetheless, they were great! Margaret thought so too. She loved eating the seeds and guts! Yummy! Hope your Jack O Lanterns lasted longer then ours. It was fun anyway. Happy Carving!

Home Improvements

I am still learning a lot...Everyday I think that I learn something new. I am sure grateful for parents who can pass along all of their knowledge about everything to me-the kid, still.

We are S L O W L Y working on the house and trying to make improvements. My parents in law came to visit. It seems like they always get put to work. The simple "oh, just this would be fine" turn into finishing projects that I have been trying to work on for MONTHS or starting and completing projects that I haven't even started yet. Like the retaining wall in the backyard...we have a hill and a sloping yard. Trying to put up a new fence (because the other fence can hardly be considered a fence...) Pulling up all the weeds in the backyard and sloping it the RIGHT way for rainy day drainage. And making our yard a more user friendly site. So I asked my best photographer, Greyson, to have the job of taking pictures. He did. This is what I got.

She's Come a LONG way...

These are old you tube videos but I was thinking about how amazing our Little Meggy is and couldn't help but reflect on what she has been through.
