Hope Floats: Halloween Party!

I sent e-vites to those of you in town, but thought I'd post it here as well...And of course, anyone not here in Vegas is welcome to come if this tickles your fancy and you don't mind making the trip!

Come join us for a fun evening of Tricks and Treats with the family. (Oct 25th at 5pm) We thought it would be fun to do pot-luck finger foods/treats. So, bring your favorite holiday snacks/treats to share with the group. Jon and I will provide entertainment for the youngins. Here are a list of activities we thought would be fun:

Bobbing for Apples
Spook Alley
Fortune Teller
Pumpkin Carving Contest (BYOP)

If you have any ideas, or can contribute anything to our party, feel free. We need all the help we can get to make this party a hit-we'd like it to become a tradition. Costumes are MANDATORY! Hope you all can come! Love you!

Quotes I like:

"All great change in America begins at the dinner table."

-Ronald Reagan

"Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves."

-Albert Einstein

"If you want something you've never had, you'll have to do something you've never done."

-Dave Ramsey

"Pray like it all depends on God, but work like it all depends on you."

-Dave Ramsey

"Hope, on the other hand, is like the beam of sunlight rising up and above the horizon of our present circumstances. It pierces the darkness with a brilliant dawn. It encourages and inspires us to place our trust in the loving care of an eternal Heavenly Father, who has prepared a way for those who seek for eternal truth in a world of relativism, confusion, and of fear."

"Hope is not knowledge,¹⁷but rather the abiding trust that the Lord will fulfill His promise to us. It is confidence that if we live according to God’s laws and the words of His prophets now, we will receive desired blessings in the future.¹⁸It is believing and expecting that our prayers will be answered. It is manifest in confidence, optimism, enthusiasm, and patient perseverance."

"We hope in Jesus the Christ, in the goodness of God, in the manifestations of the Holy Spirit, in the knowledge that prayers are heard and answered. Because God has been faithful and kept His promises in the past, we can hope with confidence that God will keep His promises to us in the present and in the future."
-Deiter F. Uchtdorf

"In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer."

-Albert Camus
