Pay it Forward :O)

Kim, Daniel, Beau, Tucker, Savannah and I were to go to Disney on Ice tonight. We figured out all our plans and arrived at the arena in decent time. We were to get our tickets from a guy from Down Syndrome association but he wasn't there. Upon calling he said it was for tomorrow. The kids were a bit disappointed but we left and decided to go get some supper. As we were leaving the parking, we decided to give our parking pass to someone. Kim and I were happy to let someone have it since we just paid for it and didn't need. Happily we left.

Fast Forward - We decided on Swiss Chalet as it was Kids Night and the Balloon Lady was there. All the kids got balloon animals and we enjoyed supper. As we were getting the kids ready to leave and we left cash for the bill. The waitress came up and said that someone paid for our bill. We asked who and a couple a little ways away took our bill. We were so shocked as we didn't know them. We all went to say thank you and we gave them some Tim Horton's certificates as a thank you. We were so blown away and we were telling the kids "Wow isn't that awesome that God sent this couple to us and how God provides" putting big smiles on our faces. When we got to the van our CD was on the song "Awesome God". Sure gave me chills at how God just works everything for good.

Maybe I will be able to post some pictures tomorrow and hopefully we get a chance to see Disney on Ice

Wow that is so cool! You never expect that a "pay it forward" would happen so quickly if at all!
