Happy Halloween Everybody! I hope that everyone has a GREAT Halloween!
I'm working a half day today and then we are heading out to the State Arboretum to check out the Ginkgo Grove, which is now at near 100% transition.
Then to take the kids trick or treating. Folks, let me tell you, I may get emotional at times today because both of these activities later today were something that I really thought about when I was locked in a deep anxiety over Holly being pregnant again. I didn't have any idea how things were going to go (But I was hoping for the best), and I wasn't sure if our life would even be "normal" when it was all over. The Bers and Holiday Season 2025 were kind of like my beacon of hope / light and they kept guiding me on. And I'm so glad to be here in the thick of it with all of you.
I'll be back this evening to post some final Halloween 2025 thoughts / review, and then I'll launch the new 2026 Halloween Thread probably sometime between 9 - 10 PM when Halloween is "over" for the most part.
Thank you all for being with me here all 365 days!
