Recycled . . .

We enjoyed a nice visit from the Millers, who were up for a family wedding this weekend. Jane and Rebekah wore some dresses that I had made for Stefanie and Angela for Easter in 1985. Jane likes the beautiful buttons (that are shaped like pink bows)so wants to wear them in front where she can see them. Anyway, here you go!

Choice Humanitarian - Guatemala

I don't know if you've been reading about the plane crash in Guatemala that involved some of the Choice Humanitarian people, but Walfred and Javier Rabanales were the in country directors for Guatemala. They made all the arrangements and did all the cooking for the groups. Will and Jan knew and loved them. . . Here's a link to one of the Deseret News articles about them. (If I don't know how to get a link to work just copy and paste the following address: http://deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,700254050,00.html

Hunsaker cousins Summer '08

What a great summer we've had! It's hard to see summer come to an end. That means it's time to say goodbye to all the cousins and start school again! Maybe it's harder this year knowing that "my baby" Carter will be in school all day long as he begins first grade! I don't know if that's adding to the sadness or what, but we sure have had a great summer with all the cousin! We love you! - Julie
