Fun on The Run!!?

Fun on The Run = Lots of CRAZY Fun!!!!!! We started out at an outdoor ice skating park, near our house, which was amazing!!!!!! And then we went to a glow in the dark putt-putt golf!!! We finally ended the night at Buckaroos ( indoor ropes obstacle course, mechanical bull riding and gyrosphere!) This is also where Dylan works!!!! We did ALL of this in a four hour period of time!!!!!!???? Soooo fun!!!

It is such a blessing to be able to watch and be a part of our boys making amazing friendships!! God has blessed us with great Christian friends!!!!!!!!!

Our theme for this year is "FAITH" and it was carried through into our Christmas time as well. We received soooooo many blessings from friends, family and most importantly from God!! We had to go through many holiday changes this year, but at every turn there was a blessing awaiting us!!!!!!!!! We definitely had a very Merry Christmas and can't wait to see what God has in store for us in 2012!!!!!!!

What a Blessing!!

Our teens at Belmar Baptist Church took on a HUGE project this Christmas! They ALL pulled together and gave of their own money, bought toys, wrapped gifts and gave of themselves and their time to be a HUGE blessing to over 50 single moms............this is over 100 kids!! These children had a good Christmas because of the willingness of our teens. They were not only a blessing to these very appreciative moms, but also to several of our church families (me included!) as they came and saw how our teens had organized and accomplished such a huge project!!!! I walked into this room and saw this:

How AMAZING is this!!!??? More toys and games than most toy stores even have......... I stood in the doorway and just cried............feeling sooo amazed and humbled at how our teens had given of themselves in such a huge way! I am soooooo extremely proud to be a part of a youth group with such heart for others!!!! The many, many children and families that would now be able to have a Merry Christmas!!
