• 6/29/2007 10:00:00 PMFireworks - Day 8Lots of help today - Aunt Lori, Aunt Vivian, Ted and Karen.  This very well could turn out to be one of our best days yet.  Vivian brought Chicken salad for lunch.  People bringing food to the tent has been a large blessing for us.  If Vivian had not brought lunch today, or if Vern had not brought sausages, Peggy would have to prepare and pack lunch and dinner each day around 6AM (along with the kids breakfast).  Thank you to everyone who brought food!  I know that has been not only a time saver for Peggy but has eased the burden considerably.

    I will be taking vacation days next week on Monday and Tuesday so that the tent is fully manned during the heaviest part of the holiday.  I'm trying not to use any days so that they will be available for me when we go and get Yuri.  There is so much work to do at the tent, using them is unavoidable.  We'll call it a working vacation.... :-)

    Gary and Jane stopped in again today.  Gary changed the oil on the generator.  That machine has run like a champ and I'm thankful for the use of it.  From speaking with them, it sounds like they have big adoption plans in the works.  They have also taken a big step in faith and the Lord is opening all kinds of doors for them.  Praise the Lord!
