Mom's Big Adventure

Tomorrow Misty is going to go with the DTS students on a trip to the outdoors. It is supposed to be somewhat intense, there will be hiking, team building activities, and there will be chicken for dinner. The chicken will be very very fresh, as fresh as a chicken can be. I hope she has a really good time. But seriously, pray for Misty this goes from Wednesday through Saturday and it is a lot of physical exertion and and she is going backpacking for the first time ever. She could have taken a pass but she is going to go for it and I am really proud of her.

We are having a quiet few days here on the YWAM Base, but next week will be pretty exciting and soon we will be having a lot of week long programs happening and that will be a bit of an adjustment feeding a lot of high school age students here.

We have finally taken everything out of our storage unit and all that needs to get here is the flat bed trailer full of furniture that is in the San Diego Offices warehouse. Hopefully soon the furniture will be here in a couple of days.

Joey is making his dad really proud as he writes letters on the side of our van in the morning, and this evening he was putting down numbers on a piece of paper and keeping score for Emily as they played with the bowling game our friend Heather Nielsen gave Joey. I like the school that Joey and Emily go to during the week, there are a lot of things they are having the kids in Joeys class do, PE, learning about the Mexican Flag, expositions (Joey talked about Cows), Spanish Lessons, art, computer's math, writing letters and numbers all of this in Spanish. Last week Misty went to a parent teacher conference and heard a really good report about how Joey is learning the language, and is a problem solver whether it is school work or other kids fighting with each other. I am so proud of my little boy! Emily is so sweet when she comes and goes to school, when we pick her up her hair has been put up into little pig tails. Next September she will start Kindergarten, and as she starts Joey will be finishing so they will be together. I can't wait for the program they will have, we loved Joe's Christmas one and I cannot wait to see them together.
