| It just happened to be Halloween. Grand Haven closes off Main Street and the businesses hand out candy to the kids. We took our little 101st dalmatian to get her bag full. |
 |
| The big kids enjoyed filling their bags with goodies, too. |
 |
| Alec and Em got out of school for the afternoon so they could spend some time with Grammy and Grampy |
 |
| Our little Avery is growing so fast. We met them at Culvers for lunch. |
 |
| I caught Caden setting up his race car track. There wasn't a lot of room since his mom and dad's bed was in the middle of the floor. We enjoyed the master suite. |
 |
| Bryn is ready for school. She is showing off her new hoodie -- |
 |
| with her name on the back. |
 |
| Alli is grinning from ear to ear because she was on the championship volleyball team. |
 |
| I especially like her name on the back of her hoodie. |
 |
| Brad has moved his office into the church office since he is doing the preaching at the church. He just couldn't seem to get any studying done in the school office. I wonder why!! |
 |
| The last weekend of October found us driving through some of the most beautiful fall colors we had seen this year. We made our way via Rockford, IL to Michigan for our son-in-law, Brad's ordination. |
 |
| Dwight was asked to be on the council along with Brad's brother and pastor friends from the area. It was such a blessing listening to Brad read his doctrinal statement and then answer questions asked by the council. They recommended 100% to go ahead with the formal ordination. |
 |
| The deacons of the church along with their wives took the council members and wives out for dinner after the meeting. It was a great time of fellowship and fun. |
 |
| Brad's friend, Dr. John from South Carolina, was the moderator and then preached on Sunday morning. Brad asked his dad-in-law to preach Sunday night. We also were able to sing in the morning service and play for Mari and Brad when they sang in the evening. |
 |
| Sunday evening after the service there was a reception for Brad. |
