Hello beautiful and amazing mothers!
As I am finishing up my 24th week of pregnancy, I know I have a ways to go, but I would like to form a checklist of things we'll need for our newborn. And I would like your help (esp. Kristin, Julie, Becky, Trisha, Pam) in forming this list.
What is it that I HAVE to have for our little Custer?
What is it that you wish you'd had, but didn't, when you had your little one?
What should I ask friends and family in the States to send b/c I can't get it here in Hungary? (I'm thinking medicines?)
Thanks for your help and I look forward to reading your "must-haves"!

Middle Schoolers and Valentine's Day
It's really not what you think. I am the advisor for the middle school student council and they wanted to have a Valentine's party to raise funds for a particular charity.
So on February 13 from 5pm to 7:30 pm we had a party at school. The kids wanted a "coffeehouse" atmosphere and we transformed two classrooms into a coffeehouse. The student council brought white christmas lights and other decorations to make it look nice. Everyone wore red and black for the evening. We sold baked goods, Nescafe, Coca-cola, cocoa, and auctioned some donated items to raise money for the organization To Write Love On Her Arms. It was a really great event. Some of the students have their own band and so they gave a mini-concert. It was quite amazing! Everyone had a good time and we raised $200!
Another teacher helped tape these lights to the window in this heart shape!
One of the rooms.
The band "Ally" was really good!

Here are some pics. I will try to put video on here too.

Fun Girls
Here is a great picture of the 6th grade girls in our Bible study. It has been a great year with them so far. They are so teachable and honest with us and each other. I am enjoying seeing them grow spiritually.

Well, I've been having trouble getting these videos on here, but managed to get the boys team. Check back later to see if I was able to add video of the girls.
