I don't know about you, but my mom rocks! She has been the most supportive woman ever! Tesh's mom has also been a blessing to both of us. (I even call her mom as well). Not only is she a fantastic mom but just a wonderful woman in general. This week's Tesh and Brae day wouldn't have been able to happen with out her help! Since she is a florist, she let us use her extra flowers. AND she helped get them ready as well! Man, she has such a beautiful heart! :) We also had our friend, Marcail, helping us! It was defiantly nice to have those extra hands with all our flowers! Marcail told us that she can now see why we would want to do this every week! Ahhhh!
Wow, we had some sweet reactions! Some were good and some not. Out of the 45 we offered flowers to, only 5 said no. Of course this was disappointing for us but most of them said that it was because they lived out of town and didn't want the flower to die. As we were walking around some ladies would stop us asking what we were doing or "are you actually doing that?" They were so pumped that we thought of them when handing out flowers and that they were free. One lady called us down from the other end of the hall because she wanted a flower and her friend wanted to give one to her client! There were times when we would hand one out to a lady and suddenly there was a line of ladies waiting for a flower! One of our favourite reactions was this one lady who asked if she could have a second one to go bless someone else. As we were walking away, she followed us and told us how she was just thinking of going out and buying someone a flower. She told us how she hadn't seen this lady in a long time and suddenly she found her! She said we were like the 3 wise men that just showed up! Haha!
All these moms are so amazing! They were worth all of the time these flowers took! I just encourage you to do something really special for your mom tomorrow! The amount that she deserves it is crazy! And... To any moms reading this, THANK YOU! You rock! God bless!

Hello everyone! It's time for another Tesh and Brae Day update! :)
Yesterday we had the most beautiful weather ever! The sun was out and so were many people. (including us) after spending most of the afternoon cleaning up garbage from the ditches... we quickly headed home to finish our project. All week we had been working on a scavenger hunt for our friend Steve. Steve has put so much time, effort and money into Tesh and Brae Day that we wanted to bless him back. He drove all around town looking for clues! We he was on his journey, we were waiting for him at a restaurant near by to buy him supper! It was really sweet for us to be able to pay him back for what he has done for us. Even though he didn't expect it, we are pretty sure he appreciated it anyways! :)
After supper, we all headed over to Tesh's house. For an hour, we cut roses and made them look all pretty so we could hand them out. It was kind of a last minute thing so we didn't have lots of people on our mind for who we should give them to. After some thought, we decided on 14 people we should give them to! Everyone had amazing reactions plus we got a lot of hugs! One lady was just sweeping her garage and we happened to drive past her. we stopped to give her a rose. at first she was a little scared of Steve's orange crv slowly driving past her house but then when she got the flower, she was so excited! Another lady we went to visit was going through a really rough time. Tesh and I didn't really know her but we went there anyways. when we got to the door, she opened it and was immediately shocked that two random girls would bring her a flower. she kept repeating "You will be so blessed for this. You will be rewarded greatly!" Most people just took the flower and closed the door but she stood and talked to us for almost 10 minutes. While we were there to bless her, she was such a blessing to us.
After a long day of smiling and blessing people, it was defiantly so good to crash. I know I am soo thankful that God is using us in this way! woo! God bless! <3
