Hi Friends,
Halloween is less than a week away. If your family is like mine - there is lots of excitement, talk of costumes, spooky yard decorations, treats waiting to be passed out, and a list of events to attend. As much as I love Halloween, it's exhausting. I want to remind moms (and caregivers) out there to focus on the big picture and not the details. Have fun and enjoy! Make happy memories and take lots of pictures.

BOO BAG UPDATE
I was waiting for the wetness to pass so we could deliver the bags and they would stay dry on your porch until found. So now, it's a dash to get them all delivered before Halloween night. Here are some pictures of deliveries in Riva and Davidsonville. Follow us on Facebook to see more pictures.
