Thanks to all the Halloween Trick-or-Treaters and their parents who were able to come to our neighborhood Halloween.

We had so much fun on Friday night (and every Halloween night for several years now) because of the joy the children brought to us with their imaginative costumes and their friendliness, but mostly their courtesy and happiness that they expressed. Always a thank you after they said ”Trick or Treat“. If they were the “teenie weenies”, the parents would always say a thank you, and usually the toddlers would get out a thank you too.

We live in the area south of Mesa School, and we had at least 400 to 500 hundred children in the neighborhood Friday night, the police were there only to direct traffic, and to hand out light rings to the children. I am so grateful that we as members of our community can enjoy all the children of our neighbors and of the children who live in other areas where they can’t interact with their farm neighbors because they live so far apart. I hope they had as much fun and enjoyment as we had!

We love to see the children and their parents having so much fun, we welcome them, and we love being a part of their joy.
