Trip to Arizona, Pumpkin Patch and Staff Retreat at Pismo

 In October we were able to spend some time with my parents in Arizona.  We helped out with some landscaping and other projects around the house.

Zane and I spent a day at the Wildlife Zoo.

At the end of the month we headed to Pismo Beach for our annual Hartland Staff Retreat.  We have been so blessed to be a part of this ministry for six years!
