Autism Tree Project

It's the third year that Ernie and I have had the opportunity to serve hot dogs at this picnic. This year we cooked up about 87 pounds of hot dogs. And what a wonderful team we had. I would like to thank them all: Kym Forgrave , Phillip and Connie Gonzales, Lewis Zollinger and the girls in charge of watermelon, Carol McHugh and Lee Chapman. Without them we couldn't of pulled it off. Thanks again. We have already volunteered for the picnic next year. One of the changes will be to add another BBQ. So we can keep the dogs moving and the line. It is such a joy to serve these kids and their families. We believe that when you serve your fellow beings you are in service of your God. This is such a powerful message in an afternoon of fun. Also we want to Thank the Wright and Hoff Families for giving us this opportunity. Our legs and backs feel the pain, as our hearts fill with so much joy that I don't have room enough to receive it. The blessings will be flowing...

There is one lesson I pray that I never forget, and that is to always be kind and caring to who ever your child is dating. There have been people in my life that I dated and I know that my Dad didn't like them. However I learned that long after that person was out of my life. My father has taught me to be quick to forgive. And to show kindness. I believe on th...
