Well I woke up this morning a little sore...but let me tell you, it was all worth it!
Yesterday we had a Party With A Purpose, which if you haven't heard about them by now you need to check out the Blog. Anyway we raised money for a lady named Tiffany who is taking a mission trip to Canada(America's hat). Let me tell you a little about her...She is a full time mother and instead of working at a paying job, she works for a ministry the doesn't provide her with a salary. She said that she just feels like the Lord wants her there and with following that call, she is sacrificing a lot. Her family lives very simply. They buy only the things they need and they give with everything they do. She didn't really have the funds to pay off the trip so we decided to pay it off for her and to give her extra to buy books to pass out to the people she comes in contact with. It's amazing what you can do for someone when you come together as a community with one purpose...reaching out!
Now this was no ordinary party! At Brock's house, it's never just an ordinary party! We went all out...Water slide, Zip line, cakes and the best food ever. Here is some video from our fiesta...
We had a blast being goofy, hanging out and raising money for someone in need! You should come to the next Party...It'll be the best decision ever!

I think Brock's party sounds like it was a huge success! Did you ride the zip line one time for me?! LOL! I'm glad to see that you are in a happier mood in your blogs! I have been praying for you! ;)
I love the last sentence of the first paragraph about how you said it was amazing how you can come together as a community for ONE specific purpose. I absolutely love community and that you were able to rock that ladies world with helping to support her. God is so beautiful and His church is so indescribable when we start looking for the joys and the struggles around us. Ahhhh i just loved that story.
Aw, it looks like sooo much fun. I think we need to make a zip line in Jekyll between the girls' and guys' house. It would make things a lot easier. haha
Also, isn't national cheesecake day Ah-Mmm-azing!? best day ever! :)
