SO...were back from our trip, were done with the Missions Conference (which was awesome), and were trying to take a little breather here! :) We had a wonderdul time at the camp conference and learned so much. I was able to attend some sessions that were so helpful and beneficial to what I do for the camp. John and Jason did as well, and they are pumped with all the new knowledge! I thank God for His journeys mercies and for giving us a son that is a great lil traveler! :)

We've got a group at the camp this weekend and pretty much every weekend after that, so i definitely feel the "camp season" coming upon us. It gets hard sometimes cause John is gone a lot but i know God will give us the strength to make it through...plus I like to tag along with him once in a while! :)

We covet your prayers!

New Pics!

V-day...Out of town...Missions Conference...Camp

Hello there everyone. Just wanted to quicly update on our month so far. We had our Annual Valentines day banquet last night and it was a lot of fun! I think the couples really enjoyed themselves with all the different things planed for the night. :)

Please pray for us as we head out to Louisiana tomorrow.We'll be going to a Camp Directors Conference called "tweakage" at Southland Camp. John has gone before and says they are a great Blessing, so I'm excited to learn many new things there. When we return, we'll be having our Missions conference and that should be a Blessing as well. The choir will be singing, our kids program will be performing a play and Linda, Sarai and I will be singing a song, so pray that the Lord gives us the energy to chug along and make it through this next week or so.

The camp keeps thriving! Praise the Lord! At the moment there are a group of retired ladies and gentelmen called "Sowers" that are helping with some landscaping and painting. They do a great job and it brightens our day when we get to talk to them. SO as I write this I ask that you keep us in your prayers! We Love ya'll!!!

OH and P.S.

props to my hubby for a wonderful Valentines day!!!!!! :)

A Dear Abby you gotta READ!!! ;)

Dear Abby,
My husband is a liar and a cheat. He has cheated on me from the beginning, and, when I confront him, he denies everything. What's worse, everyone knows that he cheats on me. It is so humiliating. Also, since he lost his job six years ago, he hasn't even looked for a new one. All he does all day is smoke cigars, cruise around and shoot the bull with his buddies, while I have to work to pay the bills. Since our daughter went away to college he doesn't even pretend to like me, and sometimes even hints that I may be a lesbian. What should I do?

Dear Clueless:
Grow up and dump him. Good grief woman! You don't need him anymore! You're a Senator from New York running for President of the United States. Act like one.

at wal-mart...

I had such a good time with justin at wal-mart this morning that I just had to write about it! He's always loved being out and in front of people, but today it was so evident HOW much he loves it!
As soon as we walked in he began saying "hi" and waving to people as we strolled on by. He would pick someone out in the aisle we were in and just start flirting, talking and laughing with them-anything to get their attention and keep it! Of course he got a response from all of them and that made him extra happy! When it was time to leave the aisle and move on to the next item on our list he would wave and say"bye" then go on to his next target. :)
When we got to the Vegetable section he was calling out for the "ball"! but i couldn't figure out where he had seen one! As i passed the tomatoes he made it clear that he wanted the "ball"!
It was so funny!! i gave him the tomato to "play" with and eventually bought it for him! (I'll be making a salad with it for dinner tonight) :)

February Fun...

Hey everyone! Just wanted to post about our upcoming month and all the plans we have for it...its gonna be a busy one and were gonna need lots of energy for it!

Justin turned 15 months in January and to see him look like such a "big boy" now has been so fun. He's very verbal and social, but has started throwing temper tantrums when he does'nt get his way... NOT FUN!so discipline is gonna be one of our main focuses this month!

John will be taking yet another trip next week...(he just came back from Nicaragua 2 weeks ago). He'll be going to Veracruz with his dad and a team that organizes the "rally's" all over Mexico. Since its there first time in Veracruz they needed some help with the logisitcs. After he comes back We'll be going on ANOTHER trip to Louisiana to a Camp Directors Conference. That should be fun! When we come back from that, we'll be getting ready for a Valentines day banquet on the 16th, and then our annual Missions Conference. Its one of the most Important conferences of the year for our church and the choir will be singin in it. It promises to be a wonderful confernce and we pray that all turns out well! Were also planning a trip to SanAntonio to visit a couple of friends and to have a good time, and there will be rentals at the camp on some of the weekends. So pray for us please! I also want to get strated on a couple of scarpbook projects that ive never done before so that should be fun for me! I also started taking piano lessons (new years resolution) and its going shall we say...ok :) I dont have much patience with myself so REALLY pray for that! hehe!

Anyway as is tradition for me to say..."Have a Wonderful February everyone!!!!!"
