Bathtubs and India

Hi ya everyone!  Well, I have made it through yet another day! HURRAY!  Today was good actually.  My husband was working over at a friends house and Penelope and I had the morning to ourselves.  We took this time to clean the house!  I started in the bathroom, I know this is exciting stuff here.  Last week I made home made laundry soap, which is AWESOME by the way.  I got the recipe through Pinterest.  If you haven't had the joy of visiting that site, you totally should!  Anyways I decided to try to see if it would work on cleaning soap scum out of the bathroom tub.  Well, to my surprise it DID!  I have never seen my tub look so great.  It only took about 15 minutes, which is normal time when you have a 2.5 year old "helping".  Below is a picture of the miraculously clean tub and part of my daughter!

 

The rest of the day was pretty much boring...I cleaned and read some more of my book Once A Runner by John L. Parker.  I started reading this book before Christmas and got inspired to start training for a 5K I signed up to do on March 3.  It's now January 14 and I have yet to get started.  I even bought an app from active.com called Couch to 5K.  Tomorrow I am going to start the training, not another day will go by without me doing it!  I will keep you updated on my progress!

Now on to something a little less carefree.  I am going to introduce you all to my awesome, fantastic, hot, sexy husband Chad.  He's heading to India at the end of February for a missions trip with our church Life Community Church, it's in the mall!  Anyways, i'll let him tell you more about what he will be doing there.. So let us welcome Chad to the blogging world [insert applause here]

Chad here...

I am going to India, more specifically The Andaman Islands, February 27th - March 9th.  I am going with 4 other guys from our church to work with a YWAM missionary there.  We will be hosting some pastors conferences for the local pastors there, working with the missionary to help equip them to grow their existing ministries to the local people there.  We will also be working to establish a deeper relationship with the missionary and other ministries that we will continue to work with in the future.  This trip is laying the groundwork for years of ministry in the future to multiple places in India.

Now for the part where I ask for something from you.....

#1 - PRAY for us.  Pray for the 5 of us going, pray for the people and pastors already there, pray for our families that are staying home, just pray for us.  Beyond anything else you can give, prayer is the most valuable.

#2 - Money.... I only need $1500 to be able to go.  So, if you feel lead to give, feel free.  You can either contact Rebecca through this blog, or just send your gift/donation to:
