About this blog....

Our family is on a six month adventure in Costa Rica. Before leaving, our friends, the Cox family, gave us a precious gift... a photo scavenger hunt of things for us to discover and experience in Costa Rica. This is our account of how the scavenger hunt is going.... along with other pictures and thoughts about our time in Costa Rica.

Gifts for others....

Our neighbors, Adriana and Tony, asked us if we would be willing to help them wrap gifts for children in need here in Costa Rica... so we created an assembly line and wrapped a ton of gifts! It was so fun. 

We then had the opportunity to go with our neighbors to deliver the gifts. Maddie and Joshua led Christmas songs for the families, we helped serve food, play games, and give out the gifts! It was a beautiful time!

Mr. Paul gave us some soccer balls with the gospel message printed on them in Spanish to hand out while here. Ethan gifted one to this sweet boy.

Maddie says: I really loved playing with the kids and making them feel special. 
Amelia says: I loved the kids, they were so fun and I loved serving! 
Joshua says: It was so fun wrapping the presents and I felt so happy after I served these families.
