Wow, I can't believe in less than 4 weeks we will be with Evan. We received some travel information from our agency tonight and it just makes me so excited!!
We are still needing a few more Air Miles if anyone has any they might like to donate! We need about 700 more. It's very easy to pass them along to us so if you are interested, just email me and I'll tell you what to do. We had to book our flights out of Halifax, rather than Charlottetown, as it saved us $2000! But, we would still love to be able to fly into Charlottetown when we return so we can see our children, family and all our friends when we arrive!!!! If we don't fly into Charlottetown, we will have to drive 4 hours to get home (after flying for 2 days and 2 nights straight!).
BIG EVENT COMING UP....
Our charity, Two Homes One Heart, is hosting its 2nd Annual KIDS CARNIVAL on Sunday, May 25th! It will be held at Confederation Landing (Peake's Quay) in Charlottetown from 2:00-5:00 pm.

Last year we were able to build an outdoor playground at Alyssa's orphanage with the money we raised! The children and nannies are loving the new playground and getting outside to play and interact with each other. We also bought some indoor school desks, toys and meal tables & chairs. We have chosen another orphanage to build a playground at this year so we are very excited!!! This year, part of our proceeds will also be going to Child Find PEI (read below)
Enjoy a family day full of fun carnival games (Knock the Cans, PLINKO, Spinning Wheel, Sucker Tree, Hockey Shoot-out, Bean Bag Toss, Ping Pong Toss, Dart Throw, Human Bingo, Cake Walk...), a BBQ, canteen with amazing treats (caramel popcorn, candied apples, carnival popcorn, slushie drinks, ice cream treats, etc...), clowns, face painting, CHINESE FOOD BOOTH and so much more!
This year we have invited Child Find PEI to join us to honor National Missing Children's Day which is also on May 25. Child Find will be doing "All About Me" fingerprinting kits for the kids, "Kids in the Know", safety demonstrations, and "Street Smarts" with puppets and stories!
