What Comes to Mind????

A very yummy combination!!!!!!


My Mother will be here next week...........



My little row of strawberries is quite full. All the rain that we have been getting has caused everything to really grow. I got my first three strawberries this morning!

The Rhubarb has already been cut once and is safely in the freezer. I may have just enough strawberries to make one pie!!!

Quite the Storm


We woke up to a beautiful sunny day this morning,
but last night was a different story....................

Thunder

Lightning

Wind

Rain

Trees falling to the ground...

It all made for a very unrestful night.


There were trees and large branches down all over camp.
Amazingly there was no damage to buildings, vehicles or people.




I am sure that this storm was just a fraction of the force that so many experienced last month, and yet I was amazed at the devastation that this one stormy night caused in our neighborhood.
We are so thankful and know that it could have been so much worse.

This tree came just a couple of feet away from smashing our truck.

It was 91 and very humid today. Summer is here!!
We need rain now and them, but we will be happy to not have
this storm repeated. We do praise God for His Hand of Protection!

Spring Formal


Friday evening was Katie's Spring Formal, and it was quite the day of preparation.
Some of the girls got ready at our house, so I had the privilege of being the official "pre-event" photographer. You can see more photos on Katie's facebook.

It was a pretty nice day and the rain held off so we could take some
fun pictures at the Conference Centre.

It seems like yesterday that we were picking out her "1st day of school" dress, as she excitedly got ready for first grade at the little Palomar Mountain School.
Now its formals and
Graduation dresses,
high heals and
shopping for College Clothes.
Where has the time gone?

After over a year of being by ourselves with Ruth,
The Lord has answered our prayers for a
Facilities Manager!
Meet our newest staff members............
















Pete and Holly will join us sometime this summer.

We enjoyed having them for a visit and had a lovely Easter together.

Please keep them in your prayers as they get ready to move and as they finalize things in North Dakota. Also, for all the immigration papers and permits that need to be taken care of.

We are so excited to see how God is going to use them here at GBCC.
Pete will have his hands full catching up on the facility maintenance and Holly will be doing multiple things and eventually will work into Program.

What a Blessing!

When in Rome

All those years of being in Lisa's
"Camp Kid's" Christmas productions
have paid off. Katie did a
wonderful job in the school play, and had a great time.

Katie was a Senators wife
Play practice,
costumes,
make-up,
lizard on a stick, (you can ask her about that),
lights, camera (not), action,
friends,
cast party.
It all add up to a fun time
The play was a musical and very humorous.

Such Talent. There may be a future there!
We will see.
