If you're an avid reader of my blog you may remember the Senior Trick-or-Treat activity our ward puts on every year at a local nursing and rehabilitation center. We LOVE this activity. It's so fun to see the joy it brings to these people when we come and spend the evening with them. And I love how much they adore my kids and the opportunity it gives the boys to learn about service. It's also so fun to see what creative things everyone comes up with for their cardboard creations. This year in keeping with our football theme we made an end zone and goal post. . .

Oh my gosh. This is the best idea ever. How fun!!
Wow that's such a great idea!! Lots of creative people in your ward. After working in nursing facilities, I definitely know that those seniors really enjoyed the company and entertainment! Great service!
Everyone is so involved! I'm not sure I would come up with something so awesome. Okay, I know I wouldn't. :)
This is so much fun! I wish our ward did something like this... then again.. i would be in charge of it, so nevermind!
I KOVE that you do this............seniors are a favorite around here, maybe because I am so close to being there myself.
Awesome activity! I bet it is so fun!
I think this tradition is so special for the seniors and for your ward. Awesome!
wow you have a talented/ creative ward
