Buzzin' Along!

We really enjoyed our Halloween! Katelyn dressed up as a bumble bee! Actually, truth be told, we dressed her up! She didn't really have a say in the matter! Thank you to our dear, talented, oh-so-creative, friend Dangela who let us borrow the costume she made for her daughter Molly to wear last year! So here is the breakdown of our October 31st events:

On Friday morning, Katelyn and I visited the nursing home that we go to every Friday. I dressed her up in her cute costume, and the residents just ate her up!! It was really cute because all of the residents were dressed up too!

On Friday evening, our family participated in an outreach through our church to a local apartment complex. A couple from our church who lives in the apartment complex set up a few fun games, bought lots of candy, and gave us (along with two other couples from our home group) the opportunity to love on and serve people in our community! Dave was in charge of the "eyeball toss" game (eyeball=ping pong ball with an eye drawn on it), and he did such a great job! Katelyn and I manned the welcome table and gave kids trick or treat bags to hold all their candy in that they would be accumulating at each game!

Another highlight of our October 31st was that Katelyn started walking on her own!!! She really is buzzin' along now! That bee costume must have inspired her! Enjoy the video below that I recently took of her walking!
