"Both abundance and lack of abundance exist simultaneously in our lives as parallel realities. It is our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend...when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present- love, health, family, friends, work, joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us happiness- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth."

Halloween Festivities

We totally get into pumpkin carving at our house at Halloween, and since we can't ever seem to get our garden ones to turn orange before the snow comes, we head to Albertsons to find our perfect canvases.  The kids helped me to literally dig these beauties out from a snow bank in front of the store but they did a great job picking them out.  The big one was hand-picked for Daddy to carve and he did so well with his carving, we won the pumpkin carving contest at my work.  We also carved a couple from Grandma and Grandpa's garden for our family Halloween party (notice the huge one they are sitting next to in one of the pictures).  Like I said, we really get into it.  The kids were Harry Potter (Dillon) and Batman (Halle) this year.  Please do not ask Halle if she was Batwoman or Batgirl because she was Batman - to be clear.
