Lots of busy little bees at this work site today. I think the kids in the village have multiplied abundantly since last summer! They are so cute. We taught them how to twist rebar and put the smooth layer on the bricks upstairs. They were covered from head to toe in cement! Had some good trench diggers today. Most of them were girls. They are pretty good at swinging those pickaxes. Everyone came home with all limbs and fingers attached 
Yep, we feed them too!
hey this message is for Jamie Preston and crew…..looks like you guys are having a great time while making a big difrence to the lives of these little children…keep up the good work and proud of you brud…loves ya and can’t wait for you to get home….talk later.
Hey Courtney:
It sure seems like lots is being accomplished - well done! I have to give everyone credit for the work you are doing. I’m sure that there will be many stories to share. I found the orphanage pictures (and story) particularly poignant. I keep scouring the pictures to see you Court but none yet - I’m sure you are well and happy. Take care and I miss you.

Hi Sandra,
Granny and I are in Abbotsford tonight with Rosie and Ellie. Saw Grampa this afternoon, had lunch and a nice visit and then stopped at Auntie Catherine and Uncle Les’, showed everybody the Hero Holiday website and the blogs and Auntie Catherine was crying when she read about the orphanage. Your dad’s in Zeballos today and I think heading back out tomorrow. Sounds like Cory is enjoying Rivers Inlet - he said he’s been out fishing a couple times and he’s really glad to be with Corey and Grant. We’re heading home tomorrow and I’ll give Charlotte tons of hugs and attention until you get home. Stay safe. Hi to Jean and Rikki and Tawny and Lea and Katey, and actually everybody else whose names I don’t know, you all stay safe, too.
I miss you, darlin’.
Your Mom

Hi Kristen Looks like you are doing lots of work. Everyone has certainly been busy helping in any way they are needed. It is great to be able to see what you and others are doing by seeing the pictures. Take care. Mom and Dad
It was so good to talk to you yesterday. I was helping Lara clear out her old bedroom. It is great looking at the pictures of you group. Have yet to spot you but I know you will be in the thick of it. Looks like a great bunch of people. Stay well and come home safely. Grandma
