The Crucible Challenge 2013

Awesome 4 mile obstacle course...beautiful weather, fabulous friends, and fun, fun, fun!!

A lot of the proceeds went to ReClaimed Project: www.reclaimedproject.org
Reclaimed is an orphan ministry that is truly making an impact in Starkville, MS, the US, and around the world. Reclaimed Project was birthed out of a desire to exalt Christ by fulfilling the biblical mandate to serve orphans and the poor. The ministry is based on James 1:27

So..two things accomplished:
Lots of fun and lots of funds for a great ministry!



Our team..."Team TuTu"


Brian and Trey ran in an earlier flight than Team TuTu


Loved having my sis, Elizabeth, compete with us!!




Stinky Feet was so kind to give our cheering squad some cool T-shirts!!

Definitely planning to do it again next year...

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

Happy Easter and Happy Birthday!


We had a super fun and super busy Easter weekend! Our baby girl turned 3 on Easter Sunday. I can not believe it...


 


We had a small "Easter Birthday Party" on Good Friday. We had a egg hunt, cake and ice cream, and a short visit from the Easter bunny.


 




Egg Hunting (or candy eating break) with Cousin Cline




We were so glad that Cathryn's great grandmother was able to attend her birthday party






 


 


The weekend was busy with dying Easter eggs, learning more about the "real" meaning of Easter by making Ressurection Rolls, and spending some time with family.




















Despite the rainy weather, we had a wonderful Easter Sunday. We enjoyed worshipping our Risen Savior at FBC, eating yummy lunch at Cook Cook's house, and playing lots of Easter games.


 


 










Cathryn had another birthday cake!


Three years old and her 1st Easter. Time flies when you're having fun!!

Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, and life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!"
