The Janssen household has been like many others in the area the past few weeks in battling all the sickies going around. Jac has been doing most of the fighting here and actually was very disappointed she had to miss her class Halloween party last week. However, the fever broke and everyone was well long enough to safely go out and Trick or Treat on Halloween night.

The costumes this year featured Jo as a loyal Illini fan (with the way football season has gone this year I asked if she was going as the village idiot), Benton as the black kitty, Chris as the mad scientist, Ali the ladybug, Jac the rockstar, Robert the StarWars bount hunter, and Thomas the zombie. Many of you know that Halloween has always been a favorite holiday at the Janssen household (probably stemming all the way back to Chris’s teen years and love of the holiday!)

We hope you enjoyed this year as much as we have!
