MICHAEL AND MANUEL!!!!!
We picked this young boy to buy a gift for during the Robleato party. Michael spent some time with him finding out about his story. He may be leaving Robleato's soon. What a praise!!
ROBLEATO CHRISTMAS TREE
All the bags around the Christmas tree were full of presents for all 100 of the children.
DUSTIN AND ELLIE WORKING AT THE ROBLEATO PARTY
Dustin and Ellie distributed cotton candy and presents to all the children while they were playing games and opening presents.
Beautiful girls at Robleato!!
I was in the face painting center. I had just painted these girls faces when I took this picture. It was hard not to take each one of them home with me.
ROBLEATO ORPHANAGE PARTY
This is the group of children from Robleato's Orphanage in Costa Rica. All the missionaries got together and planned a big Christmas party for all the orphanes in this orphanage. Wow!!! how amazing. There were about 100 orphanes in this particular orphanage who are there because their parents didn't want them or they couldn't take care of them. I can't tell you how much of a blessing it was to be a part of making their lives a little happier at this time of year.
MICHAEL'S BIRTHDAY NIGHT
We took Michael to TGI Friday's for his birthday. It is just like the one in the states. They import all their ingredients from the states.
MICHAEL AND CINDY TURN 40 IN COSTA RICA
My friend Candy made me a cake for my 40th Birthday which was on Thanksgiving Day. I can't think of a better day to celebrate my 40th.
CHRISTMAS IN COSTA RICA
This Christmas tree is decorated at one of the malls not far from our house. Christmas decorations have been out here since October- Incredible!
THANKSGIVING IN COSTA RICA
This is the Thanksgiving feast that we shared with about 80 IMB missionaries. We are so thankful that we had a time with our families in the States and with our mission family here in C.R. to share times of thankfulness and remember how God has blessed each of us.
