 Bill and I delivered big pumpkins we grew in our garden to the grandkids today.  They were pretty happy and had fun picking theirs out and trying to lift them.  It was so much fun watching them.  I would never even try to lift one of these big ones.

Made oatmeal and had our coffee.  After reading and prayer time, I did some cleaning upstairs.  Put Maverick City worship on.  Enjoying new songs I haven't heard yet.  Worked some more on washing outdoor stuff and putting it away for the winter.  Bill and I went to pick up his trailer spare tire he had fixed, found a rain gauge for Vikki I had seen at Menards and got it for her, and dropped off stuff at Under the Rainbow Thrift Store.   We got some gift cards at Kroger as they are quadrupled right now. We went and picked up a Mocha for Melissa and donuts for her and the boys.  We took them over and dropped them off.  They boys came outside and hadn't seen the truck yet, so Papa showed it to them.  On our way home, a signal was going off in the truck, so Bill dropped me off and took the truck to the dealer to see what it was as he couldn't get it to go off.  They knew what to do right away, so it was taken care of and he came home.   Afterward we took pumpkins Bill had loaded on the trailer over to Melissa and the boys.  Vikki had stopped there because she was dropping off Pizza Kits we all had ordered for the kids Hartley trip, so Peyton and Isaac picked out their pumpkins too.  I gave her the rain gauge I found for her too.  Bill had to be back home because a person from Lansing was stopping to pick up the Harley motorcycle that Greg had given him to sell and donate the money to RFS. It was in pieces, but Bill got 3,500 for it and will be donating the money to Run for the Son.  What a blessing!  I warmed up chicken fried rice and fried potatoes for Bill and I made a couple of small pizza's from the pizza kits for me.  I could only eat one, so will have the other one for lunch tomorrow.  We headed to Kimmy's and I ate it on the way.  We got there, and the boys picked up their big pumpkins and carried them off the trailer.  They are super strong.  We went in and visited for a few minutes, then Adam had soccer practice, so Kimmy and Jared took him there. We left before them to move the truck and trailer out of their way.  Fun visiting if only for a few minutes.  I texted with Adam and Jacob.  Read some on the book I got at Celebrate your marriage.  It was a fun day!  Please keep Jared's mom, Lela, in prayer for good results from a biopsy she is going to have.  Believing God to help her through and touch her with His healing power.
