I Made It To Gua And Loving It!!

Iīm so excited to be back in Guatemala and seeing all the smiles on the childrenīs faces in El Barrnaco today has just made my day. BUT it also reminded me of just how lucky I am to be able to raise my kiddos in the good olīUSA!! LOts of those children were ill and many didnt have shoes on so it was kind of sad. They all loved their gifts and the clown and Santa was a HUGE hit!!
I also had a blast at New Hope doing the mural today. We didnīt finish it all because itīs HUGE but luckily we have found someone to finsih up the paint work since itīs all drawn on the walls already!
Tomorrow is the big distribution day and party so please send a prayer our way for safety and lots of fun for everyone!
