annie and i stopped by the church last week to work on some sunday school stuff.
she asked me if she could play on the cora playground.
i said i wasn't sure….we asked the office and we were told "go for it!"
so she did.
i ran into kendall and she asked "oh are you here to take pictures?"
i said "no….but i have my camera…soooo yeah."
here are some pics of the almost complete cora playground.
can you believe how great this is?
it is bigger and better than i had imagined.
i looked at it and thought "this is perfect. it IS jess's personality…colorful and bright…so perfect"
this playground will be loved by our church so deeply.
love you jess.
