Jesus worked it out for our Kimberly and Sarah to go to Band camp.
Someone paid their way!!!! That was a huge answer to Prayer!!
Kimberly and Sarah really ENJOYED band camp and learned a lot!!
Our dear friend Bethany came home with the girls from Band camp, and spent a few days with us before the girls and her went to Athens Youth Camp.
Here's some pics from their concert on their last day.
~Megan from our church and Sarah.~
~Kimberly was so Happy that she got to play under the direction of dear Bro. Garen Wolf. She's heard her Daddy and I talk so much about him from our GBS choir days.~

~Lunch with friends at Cracker Barrel!~
~We stopped by and had a nice visit with Daddy and Moma on the way home after band camp.~
~Abigail snuck some cheese.~
~A fun breakfast table for Bethany and the family.~
~Then Bethany and the girls and I ran and picked up a few things for the girls to go to Athens.~
~This is so TRUE in my life right now..."I'm TOO TIRED TO CARE"....so, if my hair isn't done...don't judge me, pray for me. :-) ~
~Someone gave us some treat money so we got to take the girls to Grater's icecream. It was the first time our girls had been there.
~Bethany enjoyed hers.~
~Abigail is half Argentinan...she loves her Mate.~
~Look at the cute little foot (Abigail's) hanging out of her crib.~
~Butterbraid for breakfast the day before the girls went to Athens Youth Camp.~
~The night before the girls went to Athens Youth camp, they were practicing baseball with Daddy and Sarah got hit in the eye with a baseball. :-( ~
~There was some TREAT MONEY left over from a TREAT $ gift someone gave us, so we took the kids and Bethany to McDonalds before Athens.~
~Colombia's Independence day was July 20th!! WE LOVE OUR COLOMBIA AND OUR COLOMBIAN FRIENDS!!!~
~While the girls were at Athens I got the kids some clay to play with. They loved making lots of things with it. This is Mary and her snail.~
~Elijah and his lion.~
~And our dear fellow-missionary Michele Fling was in the US from Peru, so one Wednesday night we ran for ice cream with her and the Beckers.~
~My centerpiece on the table when the girls came home from Athens.~
~Bethany loves her SUGAR...and when she was with us in Argentina and we would serve her Chinese tea...she would always sneak some sugar in it....much to U. Charlie's dismay.~
~We loved having Bethany with us!~
~One day while the girls were gone, someone knocked on my door,
And to my SURPRISE...
It was my dear cousin Martha, and a couple of her kids.~
~It's a good thing we got pics of all the kids made (Above) from the clay that I got them from DOLLAR TREE...for we put them on a pan, to HIDE THEM away in the oven....BUT FORGOT...and turned on the oven...and this is what we found later. :-(~
~My chalkboard..."If These walls could talk"~
~The other day I tripped and fell at Kohls!
I killed my big toe...but THANK THE LORD that my fall wasn't worse!!~
~On Bethany's last breakfast I wrote her this chalkboard.~
~I made biscuits, gravy, baked oatmeal, and sausage.~
~Then we ran Bethany to the Dayton Airport to fly home.~
~And afterwards, we drove up to Troy to see Michael and Beth and kids.
Here they are running to meet us.~
~Beth served us yummy Skyline and brownies.~
~Brothers~
It was so fun seeing Michael and Beth and their kids.
