Faith, Trust and a little bit of Fairy dust' !

We just can't get seem to get enough of Halloween this year.  Jim's 'Wheel-mobile' (courtesy of Marianne) was a big hit as he trick-or-treated with our little ones!   After the 'headlights' were installed, night travel was made easy and passers by were pretty impressed!

Besides a few photo snippets from our Halloween, we wanted to show off our 'Tree of Life'. Thanks to Jim's sister Mary Ellen, we now have a potted branch full of 'hearts' adorning our front porch.  Every heart is personalized for Jim and me from each member of the Rich and Patterson clan.  Quite a wonder to behold and something that will remain at the entrance to our home 'Er the winter storms begin! 

With not much new to report with Jim, we've sailed into November with early 'thanksgiving' for our blessings.  Once again dear friends and family have offered their love and support in countless ways; housecleaning, paper filing, physical therapy, outings, date nights, dinners, visits, treats, phone calls, cards, sloppy kid kisses, and even shower 'evaluations' (to see how to adapt a new chair to the shower)!  Ah, Jim loves his showers!
And so, as our darling two year old 'Tinkerbell' Olivia chanted while trick or treating:
with.... "Faith, trust and a bit of fairy dust".... we press press forward!
