Over for Another Year

This morning, at 2 am, I fell into bed signifying the end of another Because of the Times! We push ourselves every year and this year was no different! We fed around 30 missionaries and ministers after church all three nights. There are so many people here that we would like to visit with that we try to host a different group each night. Even then we do not get to see everyone!

During the week, I think that Kensli has reached an all new level of "WILD"!!!!! I was so busy cooking, cleaning, serving, and greeting that she basically did what she wanted. If someone else tried to help me with her, including her dad, she let them know really quick she could do what she wanted! Next week is going to be so much fun! ;)

The 3 oldest kids did really well this week! Ricky and Kaitlyn helped with the missionary kids at church and Nic helped me!

Today we are going to Natchitoches and give our house guests a tour of the area! They really wanted to see the cultural history of the area and there is no better place than Natchitoches!

I will try to post pictures of the week soon! I have had a hard time taking pictures lately!
