Trick or Treat!

We had a GREAT Holloween. At 5:30 we went to visit grandma and grandpa Truckner
, got some goodies there (candies/stickers/books). Then at about 6:00 off to find a good nieghborhood. We went to Thomas Farms, a nice area off river. We made it through the whole left side and on our way back Val started to get cold and the heels were hard for her so Dennis had to carry her back. She Loved yelling trick or treat and remebered to say thank you to everyone (sometimes with a reminder). Then we came home and sorted through all the candy, and Daddy had thrown in a few hollloween toys. Fill up, got sugar rushes and now ready for bed. Al in all a GREAT night. Here are some pictures.

I really enjoy it, there are about 10-15 of us that attend, ALL older but i have a great time. We have a new topic everytime that we all sit around and discuss over food/drinks, then we have a big group disscusion over it that the pastor leads. I've had a good time everytime I've gone, anyone whos in the saginaw area on fridays should join me if ya get a chance!

Mr. Ed Brown

There is a man at my church who i sat with on sundays. He was real sick, gone through alot over the years with cancer, treatments, and being ill alot of the time. This man was a true christian, in fact by watching him, he brought me back to church. He just passed and yesterday i attended his funeral. Not but a few sundays ago i got to give him a letter telling him how greatful i was to see him and sit next to him in church on sundays. I also let him know that his was one of the main reasons i still attened church. I was always complaining of being too tired to go, or not feeling so well, but he was there no matter what- why wasnt I? I know my parents knew Ed and im not sure who else who may read this does, but so you know he had a great service in his honor.
