Trail Mix

Trail Mix

Now, on with the crunchy, munchy, mixed-up life I lead…

November was ‘crazy’ busy
Let’s see if I can remember all the highlights
Climbed a mountain
Served a Thanksgiving feast for 30 people
Invited 2 new missionaries to work with us
They made a commitment for 3 years of service (hurry back guys! they are raising funds in the States now)
Celebrated 13 years of marriage
Kids finished school
Wrote a book
Took on a new position at the House of Dreams (what would you call me? really, I don’t know)
Moved the House of Dreams (more to come about this at the H.O.D. blog)… could NOT have done it without the the team of 50 volunteers sweating, lifting, driving, packing, cleaning, callousing, caring for kids, fixing stuff, getting sun burns, getting cold soda for everyone, etc. …
Got a new baby at the House of Dreams
Discovered a cool new park for my kids to swim at
Rejoiced at the beginning of the rainy season

Makes me wonder what December has in store. Here is a verse I memorized when I was in Junior High. It is appropriate right now.

And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry. (1 Timothy 1:12)

Hopefully you’ll be able to kick back just a tad and enjoy the Holy Day season this month! But whew, just reading that list made me want to take a nap!

Big, big hugs!

Wow! Those are amazing achievements! I had to smile, somewhere down the list, after a whole bunch of other things -’wrote a book’ – that all by itself blows me away, ha, ha!
Well done, @ngie, it sounds like you had a great month :)
