Blessed.....WONDERfully!!!

Sometimes GOD shows himself to you in different ways.

Sometimes it is something HUGE.

Sometimes it is something small.

But...no matter what....GOD always seems to DELIVER.

That is exactly what happened to us.

We WANTED to go to the "Winter Wonderland" at the ampitheatre in St. Augustine...
but-
for a family of 6...it would cost a fortune.
LIKE:
Ice skating: $10 X 6= $60
Bounce house: $2 x8 = $16
Ice slide: $3 X 10= $30
Train: $3 X 6= $18

Total: $124 for JUST our family to go!!!

There was NO WAY we could justify spending $124 on something like that.
Don't get me wrong, we would LOVE for our kids to experience the "snow" but....
NO WAY could we afford it.

THEN....
A friend of ours GAVE us these:
Photobucket

Which was not only ENOUGH...but MORE than enough.

We took Jays twin brother and two of his kids also!!!!

And once again....GOD provided.

It was such a blessing to be able to give the kids such a gift.
And
SUCH a show of how GOD does provide ....
sometimes he provides not just for a need, but for a WANT!!!

Sweet!!!
