Preparing for Mexico

We are leaving for Mexico in 10 days. We'll be there for a week and are praying about God leading us to a 3rd village to share the gospel with. We are very excited to be there and to see our great friend, Chuy. Through our time spent with him as our guide and translator, we have built a wonderful friendship with him.

Brent's sister will be here with the boys while we're away. They are really excited to their auntie here with them for a whole week. Plus their Uncle Ben will be here for that weekend and that's even more exciting for them.

Other things going on around here... Hmmmm... well, I've been a Cookie Lee jewelry consultant since about February. I signed up under my girlfriend, Laurie Crofton, from Las Vegas. I am just now actually doing something as a consultant, hosting my first Open House this coming Wednesday. I have literally invited over 90 people, but who knows how many will actually come. I've been making follow up calls for 2 days and the response has been pretty good. I've handed out invites to many strangers, so I can't follow up with everyone... but I will be calling about 55 people over the next couple of days. It's amazing how many people we know here... but I've invited Brent's co-workers, moms from school, teachers, people we know through our salsa business, my mom's friends and employees... TONS of people! My Open House is to introduce my friends and others in Missoula to Cookie Lee jewelry, the hostess program, the consultant opportunity and to start building my business. I LOVE the jewelry!!! And it's inexpensive and very affordable... and it's beautiful! If you'd like to see a sample of what we offer, go to CookieLee dot com and check out the online catalog. If you would like me to send you a catalog, let me know. The new Fall catalog just came out!

We are working on expanding our salsa distribution into the Pacific NW... Washington and Oregon, and parts of Idaho. We're working with our Broker to get contacts made and start working on distributing samples to many corporate grocers... maybe soon you can get our salsa wherever you live!

Well, Ryan just woke up coughing and sounding nasty. I need to check on him and start my day. Hope you are all doing well, whoever you are. I pray you know the Lord and are seeking His love and His ways for your life. I pray we all find Truth, faith and encouragement in the Bible, and we each allow God to work miracles in our lives, through our trust in Him.
