Time is moving fast! 
We are almost into a new month!
Morning comes and so does the Hummingbirds!

We will be going to Belmopan on Friday to visit
Marla's House of Hope and Hope for Life.
You can Google both to check out their mission.
Both places minister to young girls and they need help. 
We will see what God has planned.

We have been very busy.
Making quilts and pillows. We do have two new girls sewing in Buena Vista and they are doing exceptional.




They finished their quilts just in time. We had an evening where our temperature was 58 degrees. Two more quilts to finish.

Making quilted bags.



The girls in Los Tambos are busy making uniforms with a couple extra sewing days for bags and dresses.














The dresses are very causal, cool and comfy to help keep you comfortable in the hot temps.

Here is my too cute picture for the day.
Hope you all are tolerating the cold and snow. Yesterday we had a high of 95 degrees. Tomorrow rain and 71 degrees high low of 58 degrees.

A week ago today we were on our way 
to Belize City to purchase the fabrics for the uniforms.
The sunrise was pretty but promised a lot of rain for the day.

We caught the bus at 7:00am and were back home by 2:00pm. It was a great trip everything went according to plan.











In LosTambos the girls are working on uniforms. The skirts are finished and now moving on to the shirts. 


LosTambos had a spelling bee on Wednesday and I was in charge of the kids.
This little one is named Dennis. He speaks both English and  Spanish



It's a tough job but someone has to do it.
Darwin loves to eat! Especially galletas.
Time in Buena Vista was spent working on quilts. There are 5 girls each making a quilt. They are doing a really great job.
This week we will be able to finish at least 3.
Enjoying their reaction when they realize how capable they are
AND we do have fun. 


This is my cuteness section. Just pictures of the kids doing their everyday thing hanging out at the sewing class.

What a blessing it is to be among all of these beautiful people. 
God is so good!

PILLOWS AND MORE PILLOWS
The girls have been busy!

They are doing a great job! We are really excited about the sales!



We stopped at the tortilla shop on Thursday. It's amazing how many tortillas they can turn out with just two people.This little lady is showing Joe how it is done but he is not allowed to help. The tortillas are delicious, they were almost gone by the time we got home.


 Mother and daughter working together!
I am really glad to see this happening. It's good
that we are getting the interest from the younger ladies.
 

Bruce and Cindy joined us on Saturday. We picked them up at the airport and have been on the run ever since.
We attended church on Sunday at St. Andrews Anglican Church and spent most of the afternoon relaxing.


 
A beautiful evening, very cool night.
Tomorrow sewing in Los Tambos.
