Today's weather says 77 degrees and my kids inform me that it may snow on Halloween? I guess we will be welcoming November in with a chill! Thank you to all who attended or otherwise supported this past weekend's Serenity House fundraiser. We exceeded our goal and will announce the final amount raised next week! Have fun, be safe and Happy Halloween!
