Kelly Pietri Materntiy Shoot

Not only was Kelly a great model (with the pregnant glow and a lot of spunk to go with it) but we got to shoot at the Slo Sanitarium Spa
http://www.thesanitariumspa.com/ which is a great colorful backdrop!









We also incorporated a boudoir part of the shoot! So fun :)






Look back for more shots of her gorgeous little baby girl Reno over the next year!

We are off to Nusa Lombogen!

Here are some of the kids watching indo tv (only allowed on sat and sunday)
It is like High School Musical but in indonesian.  Little Andre is sleeping  :) 
Me and Simon with our friends!

Hi all just a quick update...
We are off to Nusa Lombogen which is an island close to Bali.  We will be there helping Samia who is there teaching.  We are so excited to be part of what she is doing! It will be really rustic (no internet so you wont hear from me for a bit) we are hoping to stay with a family there.  Please pray for us that we will be safe and healthy! 
Also we had to say goodbye to our friends at the orphanage and it was sad... they are so beautiful and special to me! I wish I could spend more time with them.  Here are some photos.  
Love you all

More love from Bali!!!

My beautiful little friend so much joy in that smile! 
My new friends!
Don't know why but this picture makes me smile! :) 

Us with the kids! So much love.

Hi my friends! 
So we are still here in Bali and I am daily so blessed by these beautiful and their culture.  It is amazing being here but it is tiring as every minute I feel like some one wants some thing from me!  Mostly it is money they want but I know what they really need ... God!  It is funny I kid you not every other second at the beach someone is asking you ... You want massage?  You want tee shirt, sarong? Where you stay? Where you from?  Why you say no?  Why you no like me?  I am serious it is crazy they will even go to the extent to actually start rubbing you! It is so hard to make them stop!  Can you all imagine me saying no to a rub seriously it is hard!!!:)  I am beginning to get tired of it as I don't want to be rude...I just want to love them but so many times as soon as you say no they just walk away!  It has been so cool though even through my frustrating selfish moments God has used me to share with the people as when they stop to talk with me I had them an indonesian Gospel tract and then they can take it and read it on their own.  It has been encouraging to see how open these people are here!!!
Any way I hope this is no to much info but it is just on my mind.  
Here are some picks of the kids we have been loving on at the street kids Minestry these childern live on the street and they come to hang with us to learn about Jesus and to learn English.  What an amazing experience it has been to love on these children!!!  They are so beautiful and they need so much love!  This little minestry we have been working with here helps pull these kids off the streets and puts them into the orphanage family homes! We have been spending lots of time at the orphanage which is such a beautiful place! It is such an intimate family of childern like 25 of them and they cook clean and run the place, with the help of some amazing adults of course!
Well thats all for now... Love and hugs!
