Collin's new favorite day of the year

Last night we attended a firemen appreciation dinner that is held by a local church at the community center....this is the second time that Collin has gone...and I think it might be one of his favorite days of the year ....ranking right up there with Christmas....this will be a must go to every year on our calendar....the food was good....the fellowship was great...the church gets tons of donations from local businesses so after the meal they raffle off lots of prizes....there are always more prizes than fireman so everyone gets a prize and sometimes more than one prize....so you can begin to see what makes this one of Collin's favorite days of the year...free meal....free gifts.......this year Collin won a gift certificate for Sierra Trading Post...his favorite store....gift certificates for a ice cream store....gift certificates for a chicken restaurant...pizza certificates...and we came home with two brand new stuffed animals....it was like Christmas in October but you didn't have to pay for anything....its really quite nice all the work that they go to to throw this event for the firemen....they have already set the date for next year......I am sure that we will be there......well with that you can only imagine it was a happy day at the Moody household....today I need to work and Collin is going to pick us up lunch with some of our certificates that Collin won......simple pleasures..........sometimes are the best
