For the Ladies
Couple of things... I couldn't let my husband blog and I not follow suit... so here it is:
First off, Emma, Kari, & Kelsey are going to be doing some Spring cleaning with a lady at church next weekend. I know that several of you are doing babysitting jobs, etc. Let me know if there is more stuff going on... I just want to hear about it! I have also talked to Toshalea about doing some scrapbooking. There is a lady who will actually pay us to scrapbook. She is going to be giving me the pages on Monday afternoon. We have the freedom to do it when we have time, so I thinking us ladies could do pages (since she's paying by the page) and maybe have a sleepover at my place :) Let me know what you think! I think it would be blast- it would just be a matter of getting people together... let me know what you would be available!

Woodcutters/Splitters Unite!!
Calling all men from the Brazil Team '09--
I am copying my message from Facebook so I do not need to retype it:
"Hey guys, I was thinking that more of the team was on Facebook it seems that i was wrong. I will have to start here and work out from there. Joe Ginder has agreed to hire at $9/hour to help him move and stack wood that he splits to sell. He also wants to hire us to help him plant new trees on his property. probably about 75-100 of them. How does this all break down for us men??
* first moving: He is going to take two guys at a time. Mostly it just seems to be on a manageability level. Some days he will take 2 in the AM and 2 in the PM.
* second planting: this he will need up to 4 of us. not sure of time frames on this.
* third stacking: this is still in the works with Joe. Details are to come and even so it might be a contract basis that is done when we return from our trip.
DATES:
** 3/7- 2 people for a combination of 10 hours with the both of you. I am looking for the first volunteers. I have have a previous engagement other wise I would jump on it. If it does not work for you guys, I will ask some of the other fellows. ($90)
* 3/14- 2 AM;2 PM Still 5 hours for each person. ($180)
* 3/28- 2 AM;2 PM Still 5 hours for each person. ($180)
* 4/11- 4 for a total of 20 hours. ($180)
Total if we put in all the time will equal $630. This is before contract work to stack if that goes through. These are estimate numbers, it may take less time than this and it may take a little more. That I am not sure about.
First matter is to get two guys for the 7th. Let me know and I will be contacting the other fellows like Joel Z., Conrad Good, and Derek Miller too. I just friended Derek Hanna tonight so if someone could get this to him that would be awesome. Thanks and lets get this going!! Talk to you soon."
Alright, since then I found out the directions to the church we will meet Joe Ginder at. Here they are:
Driving Directions from Manheim

Colton and Derek Hanna are taking the first day which is this weekend, the 7th. I am needing volunteers for the 14th. I am away this weekend so I am hoping for at least two different guys. That way we can split out the load. Let me know who wants to be next!!

The Weekend
I just wanted to give another Big Thanks for taking a couple of minutes out of your time to separate from the retreat and pray for our team. Remember to keep us in our prayers in the months to come! Love you all!

Update!
So as of about a week ago, we have $7,000 in our account. That's really good! We have a lot more to go though, but I know we will get the job done!

Update!
First off... we made $1600 on the Soup and Salad. That's great... that means we have one person paid for in full... just 17 more to go!
Second... the bball tourney is off. That means we need to keep racking our brains to think of fundraisers. I'm working on doing a lock in at the Lititz rec. Let me know if you think of something else.
