As some of you may know, we have been looking into a trip to Alaska. There is a residency program in Anchorage that Lydia would really like to be a part of. It is a two year residency that she will be eligible to apply for at the end of her first two years of service. So, we are heading to Alaska in June to meet the director of the residency program and to check out the hospital up there. We will also have some time for sightseeing. Then, at the end of the week, Lydia will have two days of CE courses, and then we fly back. The really awesome thing about when we are going is that it will be almost 24 hours of daylight. The longest day of the year, the summer solstice, is on June 21st, so we will be there at a perfect time. We are going to be staying on the Air Force base, one of the perks of Lydia's job. So if anyone has been to Anchorage and has any suggestions, please let us know. We are looking into a few hikes, watching for whales, and checking out a glacier, but we are open to any ideas.
I wanted to thank everyone who has been collecting Campbell's soup labels or Box Tops for Education. I turned in a bunch of them the other day. I had 148 Campbell's points, and 115 Box Tops! Please keep collecting, as they all go to help the Hilltop Christian School, which is part of the Western Indian Ministries. The Box Tops are found on a ton of different products, including Juicy Juice, Pillsbury, Ziploc, and cereals, to only name a few. You can mail them too me, turn them into Keith (at Westport), Carla (at Dehaven), or Kathy (at Ballardsville), or hang on to them until we are back in Kentucky next, which will be in July. Thanks again for all of your help.
Work continues to go well for Lydia and there does not seem to be any complications with her pregnancy. We praise God that everything has gone so smoothly. I am editing my book like crazy, but it is taking a lot of time. I have no idea when I will finish it up.
Thanks again for all of your prayers and we look forward to seeing everyone in July.
