Anne’s 3rd Birthday and More!

May 25, 2013 Posted by Karen Huxter

It has been two weeks since I last blogged. The only excuse I have is summed up in one word “busy”. Some things that we have done since Don and team left are being told here with photos:

– A fun water fight/play day with the children organized by Brad and Lois.

– Anne’s 3rd birthday with a little party.

– Luckner has had a crew on site for awhile redoing plumbing lines that were never done properly in first place.

Now we are looking forward to a team arriving Monday being led by Keith and Joan Wight. More blogging and photos will come from the team next week.

You will see from these photos that what we do here truly –

IS ALL ABOUT THE CHILDREN

Love and God bless everyone.
