Leaving for LINA...but first a field trip...and a few photos from...

 LEAVING FOR LINA...but first a field trip...Where am I?

 Ok...you will notice that most of these photos are of ME...why?

 Mom and I were on a field trip today...where were we?

 Ok...a clue...I was in a hollowed out tree...any idea where I was?

 I had ice cream...any idea where I was?

 Ok...does the VERY LARGE COW give it away?  I would NOT GET near that cow...it doesn't look normal...my friends are brave but I AM NOT GETTING NEAR that thing...I stayed far away in mommy's arms!

 Ok...cow..ice cream and a playground...can it get any better...well I could skip the cow part but ice cream, friends and a playground...they are all on the top of my list!

 Where were we you ask?

 Here we are riding on a wagon pulled by a tractor....

 If you look real closely you can see the tractor pulling us...this part was fun!

 This is what we saw...WE were at a DAIRY FARM!  These cows look like they are annoyed with one another...and don't worry...the cow that is lying down...she was just resting...

 This cow was way to up close and personal for me...I would not turn around to look at her any more closely...I would NOT have gotten out of that wagon if they had left me...

 These cows are really really big!

 This is Kathy...she was our tour guide...oh the things she told us...did you know...OH could I tell you somethings...

 Here we saw the cows being milked...IT stank!

 Ok...this is to up close and personal for me...even though she is a baby and mom is just wanting to hug the calf...I AM NOT SO SURE OF THIS....

 MOM loves any animal...me I AM NOT SO SURE...

 Ok...mom is touching her...the calf is chewing on mom's jeans...

 Ok...that is close enough...and don't put me down mom!!!

 Ok...end of the field trip!!! Now for a few photos from NIGHT two of LIBERATE LINA Cedar Crest vs. Elco...more awesome photos coming soon...after the soccer banquet when someone from the stands can give us photos of the two teams on the field and all of us in the middle...all with LIBERATE LINA Shirts!  IT WAS awesome!  The banquet is tomorrow..so more photos soon...stay tuned....

 My Daddy!!!!!

 Daddy and Avi...

 Our girls....Cedar Crest...we love them!!!

 Daddy, Big sis Sasha and ME!!!!!

 Here is our sweet AVI MEISTER as we call her...actually her real name is Avigayil...Hebrew for Abigail!

 We were on the bench waiting for all the girls from Cedar Crest and Elco to go out onto the field to stand together for LINA!  Mommy was so blessed she was crying...I think Daddy was too!

 If you look real closely to the back of the shirt...you can see it says...LIBERATE LINA...Psalm 68:8
"God sets the lonely in families"  That is you sister LINA...YOU ARE IN OUR FAMILY...MOMMY is coming for you...we are counting down the days and we are now in the single digits....MOMMY has never stopped being excited...So hurry home...I CAN NOT wait to teach you lots of things...like how to...well I will save it all until you are home safely with us...and with me!  I love you already...maybe just in photos and in my heart but you will see...love is awesome!

Soon that frown will be a smile like mine and we will never stop laughing and playing and loving!  I love you Angelina Mariyana...Carpenter...love your sister...Ellianna Ya-Ting Carpenter!!!!
