More Later

We had another very busy day A few highlights:
Fedi's surprise
Berean workers
Star's filly
Prissy's udder but it is late and I'm heading to bed and I have to leave the house at 6:00 am tomorrow. More will be posted Wednesday morning at 5:00 am.
So as promised this is yesterday's news:
Fedi as a surprise to Ruth, rented a car on Monday night and drove down to Gulf Shores to spend the rest of the week with his wife and mother-in-law. Karin took a video of it but since it was only posted on Facebook it cannot be shared here. If you want to see it go to Karin Meister's facebook page. It was funny. Ruth is sitting on the swing, Fedi walks up behind her and says, "good morning" Ruth starts to say, "good morning" then realizes it is Fedi!
Yesterday we had another big day for Berean. Mark remarked, "that doesn't sound like work, it sounds like a party in that room." He is half right. We are having a good time but the work doesn't stop.
 Above everyone is hard at work, below a check came in from Lincoln Correctional center. This is always amazing to us. This is actually a tithe check from an inmate. They get paid pennies on the dollar and instead of spending it on something at the commissary to make their life or cell a little better will send it to us.

 Above Jan is opening letters and reading them while Joyce is applying labels to studies for mailing. Below is just a nice thank you letter with a new address.

 Above we have the Bible line. David is getting the Bibles for us and putting them on the table then each lady has a job to do. Eva Jean has the return address, Kathy is applying the prisoner label, Jan is applying the postage while Joyce is stacking them back in the boxes for loading. We broke for lunch at noon. Emily picked up pizza for everyone from Casey's but also picked up a few chicken tenders to share just in case someone didn't want pizza.
 Then it was back to work on the Bible line. Check out those boxes below, David and Emily were busy hauling them into Diane's van for the trip to the post office while the ladies finished getting them processed.
 Mark left work a little early to work on the house. We have been advertising Menards for months while the house waits for new siding. Well Menards doesn't seem to care, they never even acknowledged this special advertising for them and since we didn't get even get any store credit Mark decided it was time to cover up the house wrap and start on the siding.
Not really he got the insulating done last fall but the weather turned cold so quickly he decided to wait until spring to put on the new siding.
Star and her filly were taken out for a few updated pictures. There is someone interested in seeing updated pictures.


She was funny galloping around her mom, bucking and kicking. I really should have had the video camera instead of the still camera.
We had a late night at choir practicing for the Easter sunrise service then for the Benefit dinner. We still have room if anyone would like to join us for the Benefit dinner. Just send me an email and I'll reserve you a seat.
