Had a good visit with the grandkids and great-grandkids in Marengo, IA over the weekend.  On Saturday they had costume competition in the town square so David & Jessica were in costume.

David (Frankenstein) bowling







There was quite a waiting time--a dance class did some routines--and everybody was visiting with neighbors, friends, etc.
One of David's friends spent time with us.








They came up in different age groups.  Each was
introduced and I guess judging was by applause
or hollering.  Here is David waiting.




Jessica waiting after being introduced












One whole street was blocked off 
and cars were parked so kids could walk
along and "Trunk or Treat" for the candy/cookies
Ashley had her car and represented her
bank in passing out candy/cookies



Dishing up meatballs

Buttering the biscuits from the oven



Saturday evening Phyllis fixed meatballs she had brought from home and helped Patty, Ashley, & Jessica fix the full meal. Derek & Emily had come from Iowa City and Heath & Ashley along with Jessica and David, came out from Marengo, along with Cameron and Patty we were all together.










All for now, LC
