Sunfish Triathlon

Well, this past Saturday, Ginger did her first triathlon!!!! Everyone was sooo proud of her (this is Misti btw)!! It was the Sunfish Triathlon in Meridian. She did a 1/3 Mile Swim, 17 Mile Bike, and a 3.1 Mile Run!! And her finishing time was only 1:48!!! Such an accomplishment for her first time!

~~ Yea, maybe my sis should join in next time! :) (this is Ginger btw) And I'm so thankful for all the support from family and friends! I wouldn't have been able to do it without them! ~~

Well, we've been enjoying our time in Destin, even though it has rained all week. :( We've just been playing board games, going to the movies, and, of course, eating!!! Cruz was pumped that he got to shop at Abercrombie & Fitch for the first time. Can't believe he's big enough!! Our kids are all growing up too fast!

Well, Monday was pretty chaotic! Ginger spent most of the day at the Doctor's office with her daughter Vail. She had been playing with Ellie James, and got her fingers slammed in an 8 foot wooden door!!! No broken bones praise the Lord! Misti was able to help with Lila. She took her and Ellie James to the pool with some friends. Here's a pic of our very brave Vail!

Well, that's the latest info on the Garner/Wartes crew! Be sure to stop by the stores, we will be getting HUGE shipments in for the weekend! Also, check out our new line, Judith March!! Absolutely adorable! And we'll post some pics from the beach trip when we get back! :)

Summertime Fun

We can't believe it's almost been a week since we've posted anything on our blog!! We have been so busy enjoying the summer with our kids, and keeping up with all that's happening at the stores! Feel like we never get any rest, but we love every minute of it!

We just got the chance to take our sweet girls to get some much needed pampering at Tranquility Spa! (Well, except Luci Jett, she's not quite old enough yet- ha!) They had a blast!

(From left to right: Ellie James, Lila, Vail)

And just to take a moment to brag on my sister (this is Misti, by the way), Ginger was in a half-marathon on Saturday out at Renaissance in Ridgeland. I was soooo proud of her. Just 12 weeks after having a baby!!!! Very impressive! This pic is of her, and one of our besties, Mandy! She did a great job too!

And to make our Saturday even better, we enjoyed double dating with our amazing hubbies at Pan Asia!!! We love it there! And of course, love to spend some quality time with our hubbies!

This week, the boys have been at basketball camp and the girls are taking swimming lessons! It's been pretty chaotic around our houses! We're planning a trip to LA Market next week! Just still working on some of the details!

Be sure to stop by the stores! We have new shipments arriving for the weekend! Come get that perfect outfit for whatever the occassion!

We also have lots of the new boH cuff bracelets in!! They're only $22! But they are going fast!!!!

BECAUSE OF HIM

I just want to let everyone take a look at the newest boH product! It's a cuff bracelet! The bracelet has a scripture engraved on it. It is Romans 8:28, "God causes all things to work for good to those who love Him."

For those of you who have never heard of boH, I would like to share a bit of the story with you. It is a ministry that God birthed in my heart following a mission trip to the Dominican Republic that I took back in July of 2009. boH stands for "Because of Him" and the mission is to feed the hungry with the hope of the Lord and fulfill their needs through obedience to Christ's call to help the least of these.

While in the Dominican Republic, I knew the Lord was tugging on my heart that I must do something to help, I just had no idea what He wanted me to do. So upon getting back from the trip, I just waited on direction from Him about what step to take next. And then one day, while sitting in the carpool lane at my children’s school, I watched as young children came running out of school with clean clothes, big smiles, and backpacks. And that’s when I knew I would find a way to sell cute and affordable backpacks to bless others.

Since then, I have also designed t-shirts and bracelets to further the outreach mission of boH. I learned of a ministry in Yucatan Mexico, called the Global Impact Group. I was introduced to Alfonso who lives there serving the Lord through this ministry and the Cancun Life Church. He told me of the great financial needs they had and I knew right away I wanted to help. The proceeds from all boH products go to help his ministry and reach more people with Christ’s love.
