Blog Post from Summer 2020
We stayed in Mississippi two weeks, for the entire length of Karis' ballet camp.
A BIG thank you to the Snowden's for hosting us for TWO WEEKS! You guys have such servant hearts!
We were able to see Karis perform at the end, which was really special.
The day before the performance, we went to visit some more dear friends who had us over for dinner.
We had a fun evening visiting the Crowe's, and once again, Keira found a friend in their youngest daughter.
They invited her to spend the night, but Keira wasn't quite ready; however, I told Keira I would bring her back early the next morning, so she could feed ducks in their backyard with her new friend Bella.

Keira was having so much fun doing so many things, so I left her there while Doug and I went to other appointments, and she had quite a day.
Bella took her paddle boarding for the first time.
She held a rabbit.
She held a bird.
And then, Bella and her mom brought Keira and met us at the ballet gala, which they were going to anyway.
Karis is in the center of both of these pictures.
I tear up every year watching these performances to such beautiful worship songs.
Ballet is a beautiful way to offer worship to the Lord.
Two days after Kylie's surgery, she took her crutches out in the rain so she could watch her sister perform, and we were all blessed by the beautiful Ballet Magnificat performances by their summer intensive participants.
On a side note, I just finished a book by one of the ballet instructors at Ballet Magnificat.
He came to the company in 1993 at age 19 from a newly formed Czech Republic. His autobiography was a blessing to read. From our side of the world, we just imagined what was going on behind the Iron Curtain, but he gives a realistic account about how he lived from birth to age 18 and how he found out about a man named Jesus.
The book is "Velvet Meets the Iron Curtain," by Jiri Sebastian Voborsky.
