We had a great time tonight!

Don't you just love surprises? Tonight as we expected we had a lot less people. It was about half of what we normally have, however we had one new man come. The man who we buy water from is Miguel. Last time we bought water from him Greg invited him to come to our Monday night meeting. He is probably around 65 and is a widower. He is very lonely and we thought this might be something he would enjoy. However last Monday he didn't come. In the back of our minds we weren't really sure if he would ever come but tonight he showed up right on time. ( not something that is common among the people here.) He was eager to hear our Bible story and after it was over he said he was encouraged. Please pray that Miguel will come again next Monday night.

Tomorrow is Annie's first day of school! (home school) She is SOOOO excited! We have tried to make it as much like a first day of school experience for her as is possible. We asked her if she was excited about meeting her teacher. She just laughs at us. Greg asked her if she thought her teacher would be nice, she said," Yes!" Then he said, "Do you think she will be pretty?" Her response was less enthusiastic and she thought a minute and responded," I think so." So, I guess I need to pluck the hairs on my chin, lose some weight and wear deodorant or I may lose my first Kindergarten student! ;o) The boys don't start until Thursday, so tomorrow should be a fun day for her as she will get ALL of my attention! I will let you know how her first day goes! Thanks for praying!

Oh and for all of you wanting to see the picture of Greg riding a bull, I will work on getting it posted as well! I may need some help from a friend named Don on that one!
