On our tour, we have been treated so well. America has been so hospitable This is a photo of our Canadian Thanksgiving celebration dinner at Audrey's family's house in Ft. Worth Texas. Thanks America for keeping more than our tummies happy. Rio Grande - Austin (thanks Network office for the awesome Tex Mex!) Mongolie Grill - Austin (Now there's a grill - our food sizzling) Texas Roadhouse - a 5 Longhorn rating, we sampled ribs that were lip-smacking delicious! In Santa Fe we stopped at a Burrito house Some breakfast nook - Colorado Ryan thrilled about his Sandwich and Broccoli soup Here also is leigh's SMASH MASH! Our hosts had never seen anyone finish it, so Leigh gave them a little show leaving them amazed while he leans over my plate to see what was left to sample there I had a quesadilla - does this look like a quesadilla to anyone??? Yum... Perhaps I will be familiarizing myself with my runners and the gym when I return to Vancouver???

YS Success!

Here we are in Long horn Country - The land of Tex-Mex and BBQ. We've had a hugely successful time at the Youth Specialties Conference promoting YWAM and Missions! This is a picture of me "working" the booth! We had some great contacts for future teams, and we've had a lot of fun enjoying the sites and culture of Austin! Today we're off to Dallas (Ft Worth/Arlington) to stay with Audrey's family! We are so excited!

Our Mission Adventures Team (Leigh, Angela, Jacqui, and Ryan) are making our way down from Vancouver to Texas. Along the way we are visiting teams that have come and done our program in Vancouver as well as visiting potential teams for the future. When we reach Texas there is a massive youth pastors convention being held called Youth Specialties where thousands of pastors get together. We are setting up a missions booth there and promoting our program to all the leaders and pastors there. So far, we've stayed: Federal Way, Washington with Jacqui's aunt and Uncle Spingfield Oregon with a church interested in MA Livermore (by San francisco)California with a team that came through this summer Los Angeles California with Josh And Emily former YWAMers. Here's a picture of them! Today we are off to Phoenix for 2 nights then to Las Cruces New Mexico and finally Austin Texas!
