more pics



This is Caleb, Jacob and Shar at the San Diego Science Center. They have a free day once a month so we had a homeschooling field trip up there. The boys all enjoyed it, though, believe it or not, it doesn;t really even come close to the Edmonton Science Centre! Here they are working at building a tornado!







This big one is our Mexican Moose dog. The little one is the neighbours dog (who looks an awful lot like Moose). The neighbour dog (I call him Moose Jr.) comes down to visit first thing in the morning until late at night. Sometimes he even stays over night. We usually feed him, water him and clean up his poop out of our backyard. It sure doesn't sound like he's the neighbours dog, does it...
We might have two dogs now, we're not sure...







Mexican transportation system.

This is Missionary Cindy's truck. My family follwed in our van over hill and dale as we were taking these kids to a central church for a meeting about kids Backpack program. 56+ kids need sponsors (at US$100 each) to help them go to school in the fall. It costs roughly $100 for tuition, uniforms, shoes, backpacks and school supplies for the local public schools. Many kids in these colonias don't go to school because in a family that maybe make $400/ month, $100 at once is out of reach- esp. if they have 2 or 3 kids! Lots of times kids take turns going to school. 1 goes one year and the next the next year, off and on... If you can help with the BackPack program by sponsoring a child- or partially sponsoring a child, please contact YUGO Canada at the address, email and phone number on the left of this BLOG!
