Busy week-end

It is hard to believe that March is almost gone! It truly has flown! We have been keeping busy and are all enjoying Caleb as he seems to learn new things everyday ;o) I turned 31 on the 28th and my sweetie bought me some pretty flowers and a very sweet card. We went out to a local restaurant called El Camino Real and I enjoyed Steak Cancun! My juicy,flavorful steak was smothered in bell peppers,pineapple, onions and monterrey jack cheese....MMmmm! It was delicious! Then we went to our church's Y/A party and watched 'Fireproof'. Excellent movie! Some of us had seen it before but enjoyed watching it again. We had a church pizza party Friday night and enjoyed yummy homemade pizzas and a good game of volleyball. I regretted playing the next day when it was a little difficult to get out of bed from being so sore ;o) I have not played volleyball in a looong time and am slightly out of shape and practice! LOL! It was still fun!
Today, my great uncle Dan turned 75 and our huge extended family had a surprise party for him at his church. He was really surprised to see all of us (50-75) at his church! He is a sweet man who loves people and God and we were honored to share in his special day! Happy 75th uncle Dan! We love and appreciate you!
We have been told that 2 sweet girls have joined our Haiti team! Welcome Kristen and Gwen! We look forward to meeting you both! We are continuing to work on getting passports and more team members. June will be here before we know it! ;o)
Enjoy the pics:

Thursday we had many willing helpers in the kitchen!
They washed dishes,cleaned the kitchen, swept and
put in a load of laundry! AND cooked lunch for us!
Pizza rolls and raw veggies!

We played a crazy game where you have two rows of people facing each other. Everyone must hold hands and a coin is dropped into a pie plate. If the coin is 'heads' then the first person squeezes the next persons hand and they in turn squeeze the next one and so on until it reaches the end of the line. The last person's hand squeezed must grab a dish towel that has been placed at the end of the line. The first row to grab the towel wins! It got really crazy as you can imagine and we were all laughing and having a good time. Everytime the towel was grabbed then we had to rotate people to the next chair and the game was done when the same people who started were facing each other. However, if the towel was grabbed and it was 'tails' then we had to go backwards!


Abby and Mary Jones sharing secrets. They are 2nd cousins and were born just 3 days apart.
They love to play together;o)
