Fall Carnival.....

Each year, our church hosts a fall carnival as an outreach to the community (and also to serve our own children).  It has been prayed and fasted over...that MANY...young and old..would be reached by a smile, a kind word, a hot dog served or a hay ride offered.  Many attended and many connections were made.  Bruce got to work at the hay ride...I worked the toilet paper toss..and Abigail wanted to work this year, using her artistic ability to paint faces.  We were so pleased that she was eager to minister to others, even though she is still learning what this means (but aren't we all??)

She decided to dress up though..and wanted to be a Japanese singer..a very specific one.  When she brought me the photo, I knew we would not be finding this costume ready made anywhere.  But, she and I put our heads together and with some thrift store shopping and creativity....we came up with a pretty close likeness :)
