This morning I was telling Eli that his humidifier helped him when he has a cold (like he does right now). He thought for a second and then said "Jesus help me?" I replied "Yes, Jesus does help you." And then he smiles real big and says "Thank you Jesus!"

Coffee & Carwash for Cambodia
Brody and Missy
Courtney and Jessie
Jo, Seth and Dane
Jerad and John. Notice Jerad rocking his "salmon" shirt! The Benders came straight from church to help out.
Jordyn...the sweetest girl ever. She takes after her momma, of course!
Brody, John, Scott and Jamie.
Bro, Scott and John.
Sherry wearing her Living Water shirt...between her sign and her shirt she was bright enough to get people's attention!
Sherry and I are headed to Cambodia in January for 2 weeks on a mission trip with Living Water. Pastor Tim will be leading our team of 17. To raise funds we put on a coffee and carwash fundraiser. Thanks to Kasha for the idea! We held the carwash in Coldwell Banker's parking lot, across the street from Capital Perks. All proceeds from noon-4 at Capital Perks were donated to our trip. Thank you Gene and Kasha! I am so blessed by such awesome bosses who have also become friends! We raised about $450 at the coffee stand and $450 at the carwash and another $450 just in checks written specifically for Sherry and me. The Oly High Girls Soccer Team pre-sold carwash tickets and raised another $200! We raised about $1700 total. A huge success! Thank you to Tessa and her soccer teams! Thank you to Kasha and Gene for making coffee, holding signs, donating lollipops and being such a blessing to my life! Thank you to the Nickel Family, Jo and her boys, Scott, Jerad, Jordyn and Jessie, Courtney and Brody for washing cars. Thank you to Nana and Grammy for holding signs. Thank you to the Doyle family for getting coffee and both vehicles washed AND helping out by holding signs and washing cars! Thank you for the folks who stopped by to get coffee, a car wash or just to donate to our trip! And thank you God for a beautiful sunny fall day, an amazing turnout and the opportunity to serve you!

Cookies
Eli and Caleb helped daddy make cookies tonight. They were oatmeal, chocolate chip, white chocolate chip, m&m cookies. DELICIOUS!!! The boys were excited to try out their baking and dipped their cookies into milk. YUM!

Going under the house
Kev had to go into our crawl space today to clean up after some mice...GROSS! This is one of those times that I am SOOOO very thankful that I am the wife and he is the husband.
