Centro Vida Construction Complete // HONDURAS

Please enjoy this video featuring Honduras' brand new multi-purpose building, Centro Vida, which includes assembly space as well as a large kitchen.

You Matter to Me // CHILD SPONSORSHIP

When choosing a sponsor child, Vicki noticed that Lesly was an older student, but in a younger grade. Vicki intentionally chose to sponsor Lesly, understanding that something had happened in her life to cause her to fall behind. She wanted Lesly to know she cared and believed in her.
Listen in as Vicki, member of Retail Orphan Initiative, meets the students she sponsors at Plan Escalon and the impact that it is making not only in her heart, but in the heart of her sponsored children...

Before I get Too Behind!

I cant believe it is time for school to start already! Although my Mom and Sis have already been back almost a month! Both of the kids will be going T & Th starting this Thursday! They are both so excited, and I am too. I love shopping for new school supplies and getting my calendar filled in with all of the fun activities they will get to do this year. We had orientation last week, and I loved both of their sets of teachers. I think it is going to be a really good year! Now, the rest of our summer looked something like this: Preston says, “First we play, then we relax!”   Sometimes you just need a smore for breakfast!

 

We have taken advantage of the half price milkshakes at Sonic a little too often! Kate did a market research in East Memphis and we could see Daddy’s building!

I made a quick trip to Starkville for the reClaimed benefit! I had so much fun with Tricia (and Bops!) We also got to spend some quality time with our BFF Corie from Duck Dynasty! I wont be surprised if she mentions me in the next season.

We had a wonderful day at the Children’s Museum with Meme!

We have enjoyed several Redbirds games!

Had so much fun with our Texas cousins!

This was hours before Gabby made her entrance into the world!!

I helped host a shower for two new baby girls! One is already here and one will be here soon!

  Backyard Baseball…this weather has been unreal, yall!

Cheap movie day on a rainy Wednesday!  

My fabulous hubby surprised me with a new camera!!! It is so so wonderful and I am so glad to have it before Baby C #3 gets here!!!

First shots with new camera!

Whew! I think that about wraps up July for the Cantrells!

Kate, telling Preston all about school, “Now Preston, if anyone hits you or pushes you, find my hair on the playground and I will take care of it. “
