Good News and Halloween

So the Franke family has some news to share with you....

Say hello to Level 3's new financial analyst.....ELMO!!!!

Okay, in case you're confused, it's actually Nick :) That's right, Nick has been offered a part time job at Level 3. He has been an intern there since March and will start his new job on November 9th. He'll finish school sometime next year and it has been signed into his contract that it will turn into a full time job when he graduates. We are so proud of him and all the hard work he does for our family :)


So this year for Halloween, I made a fairy costume for Leah. I usually like to do family costumes but I made Leah's costume before I gave much thought to what Nick and I would be. I decided I'd be a fairy too and we'd just figure something else out for Nick. So one day we were walking around the mall and Leah saw a picture of Elmo in a store window and got really excited. It turned out that it was a red Snuggie with Elmos face on it. And that is how we choose Nick's costume for this year. Needless to say, he was a big hit with the 3 and under crowd at our church Halloween party!

Leah and her friend Sam. Sam's family was the Fruit from the Fruit of the Loom.
Sam wasn't too thrilled with his costume, and Leah was a little concerned for him :)
