Thursday, September 23, 2010. Look What I Found in the Library! I have been looking and looking for these sticky numbers for the last few weeks and finally found them! A second cool discovery, The Booklover's Repair Kit: First Aid for Home Libraries. Now, although I've never classified myself as a booklover, I do love to be organized and tidy and do things right. This kit was tucked away in a cabinet in the library and boy has it been needed! Spanish Class- Level 3b. Spanish Class- Level 3b :). The littl...

http://julieannebailey.blogspot.com/2011/06/im-officially-sponsor.html
Sunday, June 19, 2011. I'm Officially a Sponsor! After a long time of thinking about which kid I wanted to sponsor from Anija, I've finally decided who I'm going to sponsor. Please let me know if you would like to sponsor someone with Kids Alive here in the DR and I will get pictures of them before I leave on Friday! June 22, 2011 at 4:33 PM. I tried to comment on this before but it didnt work because I was on the ipad. Anyway, I am SO HAPPY you are sponsoring Karolyn! I miss her big smile!

Life Experiences: December 2010
http://julieannebailey.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. A few pictures for sponsors :). Thank you to all of you who sponsor kids thru Kids Alive (and for other organizations for that matter) and who sponsor me of course! Every year we have a separate Christmas party for the kids who have sponsors at Anija that don't also live at the Ark. We have about 150 kids who have sponsors. We had lunch together, sang Christmas carols, played a couple of games, and opened presents! Waiting to go into the cafeteria to see what the surprise is.

http://julieannebailey.blogspot.com/2011/06/from-dr-to-arizona.html
Saturday, June 11, 2011. From the DR to Arizona. I'm moving back to Arizona. And a little sooner than I expected)! God has graciously opened doors for me to be the 5th grade teacher at Chandler Christian School next year and I am excited! There are so many things running through my mind right now, I'm not sure where to begin. How can you help me during this process? Lastly, I would love to reconnect with all of you who have been so faithful in supporting and praying for me during my time in the Dominican...

Sunday, August 29, 2010. Update on Construction at Anija. Here's a couple of pictures of Anija's campus. Our new soccer field (almost)! Lots of progress has been made but there's still a few more things to do before the kids can start playing on it. The two classrooms upstairs were finished this summer by work teams and a crew of Dominicans. The seventh and eighth graders are using these classrooms. I BOUGHT A MOTORCYCLE! And when you think of me, please pray for safety! Thursday, August 26, 2010. Here a...

Sunday, March 27, 2011. What You May Find When Doing Laundry. So I woke up early to do laundry this morning and look what I found. This was seriously the biggest cockroach I had ever seen. I'm so glad it didn't put up much of a fight. Saturday, March 26, 2011. Hanging Out with the Kids. Squatting in their little room to take a picture. This is all the floor space in the room). They love taking pictures :). Their little 'kitchen' (in the bedroom). Nehemias receiving a gift sent by one of his sponsors.

Life Experiences: El Maraton del Arca
http://julieannebailey.blogspot.com/2011/06/el-maraton-del-arca.html
Tuesday, June 21, 2011. El Maraton del Arca. Here's a few pictures from the Ark Maraton this weekend. There were four different routes and distances. One for each age group. I ran the longest route which was 3.85 miles. It's mostly Ark kids, staff, summer interns, and Kids Alive missionaries who participate. A few of us who ran. Melia was excited to run. Joshua wasn't so sure. He went to the start and then cried once they said, "Go! So his dad walked him back. :). June 22, 2011 at 3:11 PM.

Life Experiences: Two More Days...
http://julieannebailey.blogspot.com/2011/06/two-more-days.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. It's true, I only have 2 days left in the Dominican Republic. I fly back to Arizona THIS Friday! Here are some pictures to give you a glimpse of what I've been up to the past few days. Mallory is going to be a new missionary with Kids Alive here in Jarabacoa. Since she won't be coming until October, we decided it would be good for her to come for a week to 'learn the ropes' of what her responsibilities will be (Anija sponsorship and the library). Enjoyed huge mangoes. :). I can ...
