different park, same problem

I’m thinking we should find a place to play that is at least 100 yards from the nearest “ball trap,” but that is harder than you might think around here. Until we can, we’ll just continue to rely on teamwork and creativity…

How to get your ball out of a canal:

1. Assess the situation

2. Determine who has slightly longer legs

3. Help a brother out


The smiles of victory when the ball is safely back in our hands is worth every minute it takes to get it out!

  1. Help a brother out! Haha!!! Mahones, this might officially be my favorite post yet! That is the cutest thing I've seen all weekend and a perfect way to end the evening! Thank you for sharing that! I think what a love most- besides the humor and being able to visualize the smile on your face when taking these pictures- is this epitomizes the good I wish we saw more in the world! Sometimes all we need is too "help a brother out!" :) love you and miss you SO much!!! Em

  2. Katie, only you would keep going back to "battle the canal"! It sounds like the score is:
    Katie's team - 2
    Canal - 0
    I am so proud of the work you're doing there! Keep showing the love of Jesus to these precious children!
