Ladies First :)
Um mom , where is my chauffeur ??
I wrote his number on my hand can you call him for me ?
Oh , here he is
Mom do I have to push her ??
Yes because I am a "gurl" and ladies come first . Arianna is into telling me that she is a "gurl" so she gets pretties and Bray is just a boy . Hee Hee
Geez , I wonder if I have to spoon feed her too
Ladies ........... I give up (notice Ariannas pleased look:)
Maybe she will be happy if I serenade her
To think I am only 2 ........ I have alot of year ahead of me with that lady :)Wednesday, March 5, 2008

The Wedding
Mark and I had the honor of being sponsors in a wedding this weekend of our friends from Mexico . It is so neat to learn the different parts of the hispanic culture. Although it is hard with the language barrier :)
Adriana and I
Mark and Raul
All of us
The beautiful bride
With her parents and son
All of the attendents ( look at Mr. Guapo in the middle:)
Mark and I
awwwww.....so happyEDITED TO ADD Okay I will explain how Mark and I got involved. This family is a family that attends our church and that we help out with our hispanic ministry. The whole family ( 9 people) live in a small 2 bedroom house , so our ministry helps them out with food and rent from time to time. Anyways a few weeks ago the brides mother ( in the 5th picture down) was involved in a bad car accident. Our church had to help them alot throughout this with rides to doctor and translation (or trying to) . So I got to know the family pretty well. Fast foward to last week I get a call from the daughter asking if I would be the "madrina" AKA godmother of the wedding. Because of the language barrier I still don't really know what that meant but they just told Mark and I to walk up holding the candles..... I should really research it and see what it means :) So the ceremony was pretty much the same other than the "madrina" which I had never heard of. The reception was awesome ... the hispanics cooked us Fajitias that were so good. They did a tradition that the bride stand on a chair and everyone walks in a circle around her dancing. And then all the couples switch partners to dance with them.
One more thing that was awesome is that the bride called me last week to go and help her find a dress. I asked her how much money she could spend and she said $30. I panicked knowing the least you could probably find one for is $100. So as I was talking to one of my friends from my church she said the bride could try hers on to see if it fit to borrow. So we brought her over there and guess what it fit PERFECT !!! So then she had the $30 to spend on accesories. GOD IS GOOD !!!

Angelika is so awesome with the twins ... she really is a little momma. Every morning when she leaves for school the twins tell her "HUG KEESS" . They have to hug and kiss her a million times !! I am so proud of my oldest princess .

If this doesn't tug at your heartstrings .......
One of my friends is a full time missionary in Zacapa, Guatemala and the areas around it. He posts pictures of his life there from time to time .So I made this montage of his pictures to share with you all :) Everytime I see a new picture something happens in my heart. It is a amazing thing .... it is like my heart skips a beat and I am filled with emotion. A part of me wants to run down there and never come back and the other part of me is scared to death to go because of the intense emotion I know I will feel. But I rest in the peace knowing that God will show me when it is the time to go.

FFF
Us with Homer and Rosa from Santa Cruz del Quiche, Guatemala
This is my FFF because these are some amazing Guatemalans. They are here in the US trying to raise support for there "orphanage". Really so far all they have been able to do is take kids into there own house. They have 8 bio kids and have taken in 10 others plus they feed the widows. They have NOTHING ( no sponsors so far) and they just keep trusting God to provide them with enough food to feed all these people. There testimony is amazing and they are my heroes.
So mom , what makes you think we snuck our pudding in your room ??
