Jaedon was in charge of the tomatoes, he said that this car load was from just 10 plants .. that still leaves 990 plants to pick |

Luba's baby was visitig with her grandparents .. it was good to see the boys as well.. we have known them since they were in the orphanage in 2006.. |
We left a bunch of produce at Larissa's as well. She will use it for the mens home and for some of the families that she supports

after our 3 hour time limit was up, we went up on the balcony and enjoyed pizza and pop .. |
Later that night we dropped Kolya back off at school and we said good bye
Yesterday we were back out at the farm. We had a cleaning day .. Yvonne worked inside, washing and bleaching everything , and Jaedon worked with the boys and presure washed the out side .
Today, Julie and Acel are packed and in an hour will be heading for Paris
They are a little nervous, but know they can do it .. it is for a good cause .
Not just in Kyrgyzstan, but all over the world, women are being treated wrong with so many different issues.. Sex trade , slavery, physical and emotional abuse , unfair work practices. This is so prevelent in Central Asia , so we will start where we can . While they are walking , we challange you to find articles about womens' isues, post them on social media, and tag and challange two friends to not just to do the same , but to donate $25 .
Buy raising funds and awareness, we will be able to partener with those who are making such a difference here in Kyrgyzstan . Our goal is to raise $100 000. Half will be used for infrastructure, and the other half will keep things rolling until we are able to bring a level of self sustainability to the project. .. I will do a seperate post tonight , one that we can share and start the ball rolling .. starting tonight the challange will run for 40 days , while Julie and
Acel are walking the 800 km
