Mexicali...

(sorry but i posted the pics from the end to the beginning on accident! i'll redo the order later!)

here's the pix starting from the end... oy...

the taco stand we had dinner at.. mmmm!

some of the people at the outreach...

recruited into face painting... and guess what- i absolutely loved it because I was able to use my rusty spanish to ask the if they knew of Jesus' love for them!

adam- leading worship in spanish...

the clothes piles....

more of the outreach time...

more face painting...

gabe and adam with the kids... teaching them some songs about Jesus's love...

the beginnings of the set-up...

awhhhh the kids...

this was the church that we were working with.... now, it's all rubble from the earthquakes...

right next to the rubble is the "new" church... and outdoor worship area...

we dropped off supplies here that they requested...

the loading up of all the cart loads from costco in mexicali...

here's a graveyard we passed by while waiting for all the cars to cross the border...

the team for the day!

one last stop before crossing over the border...

I was so blessed to have this opportunity to go and minister! it totally ministered to me!

Dear Jesus please bless the lives of those people we ministered to that day and may the come to really know You in a personal way....

bear does a lot of cute little random things that i forget to take pictures of, but i finally remembered! at first he only had two balls up and then when the ball would fall he would tell it "no, dont do that. i told you!"

then before i left for bible study i saw that he had 4 balls up!

hee hee what a silly and cute bear!

d u c k s... quack-quack!

today we went to the park with auntie and cousins

and even nicole and itty-bitty baby hannie!

the kids played in the sand, and on the slide, and

they even got to feed the duckies bread!

bear liked the duckies a lot! he kept getting real close to them

and he even chased them around the park...

peyton and bear...

come back duckies!

so i decided to go further down the hill, closer to the duckies by the water with tay and bear

and lo and behold bear is running toward the duckies and tay is too, kinda

then i see two duckies going at it with wings flappin and heading in our direction

and bear heading in their direction

they come at us

i run left busting up in laughter

tay runs right and screams bloody murder up the hill

and me still bustin up

and bear sees tay and does the same thing

i could not stop laughing

and poor tay- she really was scared

she screamed-cried all the way to her mama up the hill by the playground

and this all happened in front of everyone!

hee hee

too bad no one got it on video!
