***Oh, my 18 yr. old niece is trying to raise the money to go with Kelly and me to Ethiopia in December....She is a freshman in college and desperately would RATHER spend her break in Africa than AT HOME!! She's following in her Momma's foot steps for sure!! She's sponsoring a kid from Kora and cant' wait to get back to see him! How amazing is that!! Here she is pictured below with her sponsored Kora child!! She used every dime of her summer babysitting money that was suppose to be used for college TO SPONSOR this child to go to school!!

This is LL in her swim diaper and George playing with two pretend knives!! Nice huh?? LOL LL is in the stage where she constantly tells us she LOVES us all the time!! She kisses everyone and says, "I love you Mommy...I love you Daddy" It melts your heart!! George was asleep on the beach and she walked up to him and leaned down and kissed him and said, "I love you Georgie" Yes, she is the sweetest thing alive and we PRAISE GOD for her each and every day!! She even has the sweetest "I'm sorry Mommy" every time she makes a mess all day!! Such a little blessing!! Have a I mentioned lately HOW crazy we are about her!! :)

Brad is going back home after a week and Judy and I are staying until our Embassy date...LIKE A ENTIRE MONTH!!! Maybe you and I will even be flying home together....we so want to be home for Christmas also BUT not sure that is going to happen. We are going to be working at the care center the entire time we are there. Please, let me know if you want or will have time to meet me and our kids. I have wanted for this day to come for 3 years and now our dream is coming true!! If you want to email me at kjboesch@new.rr.com.
