October is here and we're in full swing at our house. The mums have been planted, the Halloween costumes have been chosen, and our weekends are booked with corn maze adventures and other fall fun!
I'm continually adding Halloween-themed and trick-or-treat events to our calendar. If you haven't heard yet, all Lebanon County towns will hold Trick-or-Treat night on Thursday, Oct. 30 from 6-8 p.m.
