Magnificent, Marvelous Monday

Today I took the younger girls to a place I haven't ever been to, but have wanted to. The U of M Arboretum . It was a perfect day, sunny, warm but not hot and breezy. It is a beautiful and peaceful place. We had a lot of fun.


Monika has spoken for about 6-8 months about blue bells, that she wants to buy some blue bells. She couldn't give any real answers to why was so attached to these, she was very excited when she saw some today.
The next two pictures are in my girls creative mind. They wanted to do TA using themselves. Yes that is correct, we got our TA today after waiting for 25 days. We were at the Arboretum when we got the phone call stating this. We will find out in the next day or two what are actual travel dates.

We are so excited about this TA. Can't believe that we will be leaving (we could leave as early as next week) in the next couple of weeks. We are so thankful for this. We continue to be thousands of dollars away from the total fees we need. We received another grant denial letter today, so we are done to 3 grants left. We have been praying very hard that we will get more grants, but again we continue to keep our faith and believe that Jesus will provide and that we continue to totally trust him. Please say a prayer for us (or as many as you want) that we will get the remaining about that we need.
