Here is my 2008 Jack-o-lantern...the only thing I HAVE to have besides a truckload of candy...to be ready for the trick or treaters. I'm rather happy with this year's creation. Usually I just whack a few holes in a pumkin so I can spend more time on roasting the seeds. But this year I decided to take a little more time. I found this template online, came home and started carving. I love that he is so dreamy. I wonder what he's thinking of? Enjoying the cooler weather? I get thoughtful just looking at him. He reminds me to dream and find joy in those dreams. Tonight, about 50 children will come to our door dreaming of sweets and praise for their creative costumes. I think of their parents and the fun and joy in the activity of meeting neighbors and watching their children's faces. Happy Fall everyone!

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
