Hello C3 families, yesterday  was great!  What an awesome Cinco de Mayo celebration we had with yummy tacos, fun dancing and exciting penata pummeling.  (And the candy inside wasn't so bad either.) I'm so grateful, as I'm sure all of you are, for the gift that lies within  Shirley to make these beautiful occasions come to fruition.  We are so blessed to have her put all of the wonderful food and activities together for our enjoyment. And thanks to all of the awesome ladies who are proving to be wonderful chefs who are willingly sharing  your recipes with us and definitely blessing us in the process.  Yummy! 
 We are coming quickly to the homestretch and while I know that many of us have spring fever and are ready for the summer to come, I am truly going to miss our time together and all of the awesome experiences we've had this year.  But I'll save the tears for later and enjoy the rest of our time.  

Next week in lieu of presenters we will be blessed with praise and worship led by:
