Couch to 5K!

May 14, 2012

Has anyone ever heard of this?! Well, if you don’t even know what 5K…the k stands for kilometer, and 5k=3.1miles! Now we’re speaking American terms. But let’s go even further and talk runners terms! I am a HUGE fan of Groupons. If I’m not mistaken, part of being a virtuous woman (Proverbs 31) is to […]

A Tip or a Bribe?!

May 3, 2012

In our training here in the last few weeks we have been discussing some things that we have never had to think about before! Between our Romans 12-14 class and our Culture/Language Methodology class, we had to face some hard issues. Like, how can you tell the difference between a tip and a bribe? For […]

Our girls are growing!

April 16, 2012

It was a big day for us today! Our girls had their first checkup together! Olivia had her 2 year appointment, and Sophie had her 4 month. The doctor said our girls are perfect…but we already knew that! Here are their stats: Sophie weighs 12 lbs. 8 ounces (16%) and is 24 3/4 inches long […]

Easter

April 12, 2012

Most of you know that we had a big field fair a couple weeks ago. It was really great to see all of the different fields represented. When BJ and I […]

Grammar class

March 8, 2012

Who remembers how fun grammar was in school?! Not me. But I am reminded of it as we are learning grammar here at New Tribes Training! I don’t know how, but it has been more enjoyable this time around! It’s a little different though. Here is our first assignment that we had (the easiest). Take […]

Childcare in training

March 6, 2012

What do you do with your kids while you are going to classes? Well that’s a great question!! The training provides awesome childcare at a super low price! I’m talking just enough to pay for the snacks that they eat! We are so blessed to be able to really focus on all of our classes, […]

Missionary Training Labs

March 5, 2012

We would like to get a little better in blogging about things we are learning, and not just posting pictures of our sweet babies (although 1/2 of you are just interested in that!) After a weekend in Oklahoma and hanging out with friends and family, we realized that what we are going to be doing […]
