GLEEEEANERS......

So the main idea at gleaners is to process the vegs so they can be dried and then packaged and made into soup mix to be sent around the world. Gleaners is able to feed 25,000 people per day worldwide! We are thrilled that we got to be part of this and see how it all comes togerher! It really was a lot of fun and feels great to know we're helping out those who really are mal-nourished.

Jesse is a great worker!

Ethan had a couple of different jobs along with Maddie ~ he enjoyed making his rounds!

Madison was great at helping out!

Jenaya really cut em up!

life's a beach

Jason, oh Jason, what can i say about this husband of mine? he is my husband of 11.5 years. i am blown away by God's goodness in him. he truly loves us and makes so much time for us. he is hard working and fun loving. he brings peace to our home and to the depths of my heart. i feel so blessed that God would give me a husband like this. Jason has shown so much committment and love. we have our ups and downs, but he is consistant in all those times. consistantly kind, patient, calm, logical, realistic, caring. i love this guy and am going to keep him!!

confidence rules in this guys heart

Ethan is 3. He has been the life of the party for a while now. When we think of e-man, we think "entertaining". he really knows too much for his little age, but he sure knows how to put smiles on our faces. ethan isn't afraid to "talk" to anyone and will even shout things out to strangers. some of his favourite sayings are "hey dude!" "look at me!" "i'm good at this aren't i !" "i can do it too" . "good, good mom, you're a good girl" "you're beautiful" . this boy is a gem. we love him too!
