camp horizon.

as many of you know, camp horizon is an 

organization that jim & i are very passionate about.

like many non-profits right now, camp is struggling.

having seen the amazing and magical things that camp does

every year for both campers & counselors, it's so difficult

to think about the possibility of not being able to have camp every summer. 

come out & support camp horizon at one of our fun upcoming events:

we have spin 4 kids at camp twin lakes on october 20th &

the 2nd annual wine tasting on november 3rd.

donate today. please & thank you!

dona nobis pacem.

time to carve.

i'm really looking forward to carving some pumpkins this year.

has anyone started carving yet?

love this- surprise me!

i've seen decorating, rather than carving pumpkins

has been a real trend lately..

in 2008 we went crazy carving obama pumpkins...
