Dedication

Pastor Pat Calvary Chapel Fallbrook Present us with the key for the Orphanage.

These beautiful young ladies are from the Christian school Ream's sister in-law runs.
They do dances as fundraisers and really help the day to feel like a cerimony.
I would not have thought to hire them but I am sure glad they did.
Reams' cousin is the one kneeling in blue i think Ream said she 13 or some thing like that

This was the kitchen in use for the 150 guest.
Thats Ream back in the purple.
The dinning room was set up so nicely. The decorations where done by Sandy Olsen. When they said Sandy was coming to paint I was a little concerned because Sandys'favorite colors are lime green and purple. But Her tast where perfect for this with out seen it she matched everything wonderfuly.


During the day different villagers have dropped by to view the building many of them stopped to whatch Sandy paint. Again Sandy did a wonderful job and thank you to Jill for all her help in decorating and painting.

Joseph 6 kilo talks ( goo) a lot and laughs, just learned to role over yesterday.

A wild time at Ruth Orphanage Jake was a real hit with the children and a real help doing medical clinics.

We found this in the back yard , Hang says the Khamer Rough use to eat them in front of the villagers to scare them and make them think they have special powers. Hang says if it bite you swel l up. It was about 4 inches long and the head the size of my finger nail. It was so nasty and hissed at us when we poked it. Just one more bug you do ot want to know about.

After all the parties we where checking out our water system and as you can see the ghost like figure. I said our past has come back to haunt us, but Hang did not understand.
