Jumble Sale

A few weeks ago we had a big jumble sale.
These days always start WAY to early.
But they are always worth it.
 Jumble sales are intense.
I would compare it to black Friday in the states.
They have areas blocked off, They have older boys
positioned as "body gaurds" so people don't 
steal. And there are lots of extra eyes on the look
out as the chaos begins.
I didn't get any pictures of the hordes of people, but it
was fun to watch them come. They advertised that it would
be at the gate of the school, Then moved it to up by the offices.
When they informed the group waiting at the gate of the change,
there was a 'race' to the top of the hill and the sale that awaited
to get 'first dibs'.
(This was all happening at/before 6 a.m.)

Praising Jesus for another successful day!

God Knows.

She just arrived  @ New Hope this afternoon. 
She doesn't have a name.
But the Amazing thing is. She was created for a purpose
God knows exactly why she is here and His plans for her.

Please be praying.

The Babies

I am thankful to have found some balance between New Hope and
School. The mornings are spent at New Hope and the afternoons
at C.C.C.D. So thankful how God is working in both these ministries
in my life.
 Making sure Timothy gets in on snack time.
 Dance party during the birthday party.

 This picture cracks me up. I love Kyle's expression towards Blake.
I can only imagine what he is thinking:D
Baby girl and I going for a walk.
My little fashionista. This girl has got style.
The frillier, sparklier, girlier the better.
She daily rocks the red sequence boots with all she wears.

Thank You Jesus for each of these babies!

with our students. Its a great week that both the staff and students
look forward to every year.
Thank You Jesus for faithful teams!
