1 Corinthians 3:4-9

"For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere men?

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."

Juevos! Juevos! Juevos!


Hola! I only have a few minutes today but I thought I'd post a few pictures from two different birthday celebrations lately in Los Guido.

You may or may not have heard us talk about the Costa Rican tradition of breaking eggs on ones head for their birthday- not just any random amount of eggs- one egg for every year of the recipient's life!!! (That is why Ethan is so excited for my upcoming 30th birthday!!!) You might be thinkging, "Does she mean they crack eggs on your head on your birthday?" Yes, that is what I mean!!! Not eggs-actly (haha!) what you may have in mind for a fun thing to do anytime, let alone on your birthday, and it is a bit loco for a tradition, but it is what it is and we love taking part in it, let me admit!!! It is pretty much eggs-citing!!! OK, no more egg jokes- I know they stink like rotten eggs...

Anyway, the kids here LOVE this tradition and here are a few pictures I thought I'd share with you. I'll be posting more soon- this Saturday we celebrate Marvin and Rogelio's birthdays- that's ALOT of eggs!!!

You can see Audrey is thinking "Why does Ana have all those eggs on her head?" She spared Ana from the torture, but Isabelle and I couldn't resist!

And Matt, well, you can see that he definetly felt no sympathy for Valeria!!!

Anyway, have a great day!

Love,
Brooke :)

That's a neat tradition. I didn't even know that.

Can't believe you are going to be 30 soon. You look so young.

Ally says her new BFF is Isabella. :)
