Feeding the Homeless

A few weeks ago a small group got together at my house and we made 200 sack lunches for the homeless people living on the streets of down town Las Vegas. It was a great experience. It was also very depressing to see tent after tent of homeless people. After we assembled the lunches we drove down town and walked along the streets handing them out. Once the food was just about gone, then we delivered the last 20 or so to the homeless veterans shelter near by. When we got to the shelter we were told "thank God you didn't get caught". Apparently it is a $300 fine to feed the homeless, compliments of Mayor Goodman. I'm glad we didn't get in trouble for doing something good to those in need. Plus I would have felt very guilty for having the bright idea.

She was trying so hard to feed her "Brown cow". I love how she's holding him up with her knee.

Update on us

I'm just so excited to know Jerry is more than half way done with school. It has gone fast! Trust me that's not a complaint. I'm thankful it has. Jerry's busy studying for his boards. He takes the first of three next month. The second portion will be next summer/fall. He would have started his rotations yesterday, but took this month off. They take a month vacation both 3rd and 4th year. Usually it's not a vacation, because they are studying for their boards. So he's pretty much done with the classroom portion and will concentrate on seeing patients until he graduates. Isabel is getting so big. Her vocabulary grows everyday. I sing amazing grace to her at nap time. This week she has been trying to sing it with me. It's so cute, b/c she says half the words. She's a great girl! So all is well here, and we hope the same for all of you.
