Thanks for the Comments

Thanks to all of you who are leaving comments on this blog. The kids (and the adults) love to hear from you! Every time I return from a trip to town to update the blog, I get lots of questions about what comments were left by family and friends. We read our latest blog posts and your comments during our evening reflection and devotions time, and it's something that everyone looks forward to.

I understand that a few people have found the blog uncooperative when it comes to comments. Here's an approach for you to try:

Below a post, click on the comments link (it will say "0 comments" or whatever number of comments have been left already).

Before typing your comment, look on the right hand side of the page where it says "Choose an Identity." Go down to the line that says "No Google account?" and click on "Sign up here." (This is for your first comment only. After that, you can log in with the info you used the first time you set up the account.)

Fill in your email address (twice) and a password you want to use (twice). Note that the password must be at least 8 characters long; shorter passwords will be rejected.

Continue filling in the form with a "Display name" (what you want to appear on the screen with your comments) and the word verification. Check the box that says you accept the Terms of Service, and then click "Continue."

You'll be taken back to the Comments page and can leave your comment for the group.

PS - Don't forget to check out our photo albums at www.kodakgallery.com/bbruneau. I'm adding photos each day from several of the photographers on our team. They're not sorted or captioned, but they should be fun for you to browse.

Hi everyone! I am not surprised that the snake had to be photographed before it got away...but Linda Anderson really doesn't want anyone to bring one back - dead of alive! I bet Amanda will never have the opportunity to be looked at by a vet again either. What an adventure you all are on! I think of you guys often as I sit in my air conditioned office...! Enjoy your weekend of fun and relaxation. Peace - Deb

Hey troops, looks like you are extremely busy, I was looking through the awesome pictures, and noticed that right away Matt H. put himself behind the wheel, this doesn't surprise me a bit. I also noticed that our wonderful pastoral staff are teaching our sheltered babes how to GAMBLE just not on Sunday OK?, and that foot with the flip flop on, is that a fmailiar foot I'm seeing? It looks like one that has tromped in this house before. Oh well, battle wounds are memories and it looks like you are all making many wonderful ones. I'm proud of all of you, and just a heads up, watch Luke, he may sneak off and take a siesta when your not looking. By the way, I love the haircuts, just watch the sunburns. See you in nearly a week, Pat

Hey Guys! It really sounds like a lot of very positive things are going on there, like the friendships, and learning to work together to get things done. Even though some days may be stressfull, remember to take time at the end of each day and reflect on all the positive things that happened, and thank God for all of it being possible! Keep up the amazing work! (Love you Matthew!)
