Dear Grant Ranch Families,
It was so fun to see so many families at our Costume Parade and dance celebrating Halloween yesterday! I am always so grateful for opportunities to come together in such joyous ways. I hope everyone who participated in Trick-or-Treating -kids and grownups alike!- can get a little rest this weekend and be ready for the week ahead!
