BOXES!!! Hike, Hummingbird, Tarantula

We got our first box(es) today!!! These were shipped the first week in August. We got our cushions for our kitchen chairs and some nice stuffed animals for the kids (thank you so much Mom and Dad Schlorf!! We'll get pictures of us sleeping comfortably at our kitchen table soon!!). We also got a surprise box from our friends Dave and Shirley with a book, candy treats, and a blessing in an envelope! Thank you guys! We are hoping that our other boxes are soon to follow!


Here is a picture of all of us who went on a hike Sunday afternoon down the ravine.


Here is a picture of a tarantula that we saw on our hike Sunday (it was dead):


I spotted a hummingbird that got stuck in a metal mesh satellite dish. I got a ladder to get him down and then brought him in the house to check him out with the kids (I don't know why Blogger rotates the pictures once in a while).

We're glad to hear the our package made it to you and the kids. How about starting a "wish list" tab/menu on your blog that you update on a regular basis? Then we can have an idea about what to send next... Just a thought. "Ask and you shall receive." Take care!

Thank you so much Dave and Shirley! I appreciate the suggestion on making a list available. I will work on creating a list of things and post it on here. We praise God for friends like you guys!
