The island in the middle is usually about 6-7 feet above the creek level.
The kids and I kids and I carved their pumpkins first thing in the morning.
Afterwards, we took a walk to the back pasture when the rain slowed down to see how much water we really got. Chooj had to try out his new boots.
Here are the kids in their costumes ready to get some candy. Chooj was a "pie-rat" but we forgot to take his fake rat along with us. I also made him an eye patch but he didn't want to wear it. Hayes was a witch. She looked great in her hat with fake hair and dress from Unci (Lakota for Grandmother).
They may fight like cats and dogs sometimes, what siblings don't, but they love each other and Hayes is a great big sister.
