I haven't written a blog in about two weeks and I figured it is time that I share with my friends that take the time to read my blog about what been going on. Where do I start.
Tristen goes to Churchill YMCA Summer program. Cindy is one of the ladies that works there. I drop Tristen off with her in the mornings. Cindy told me on Thursday July 15th that Friday July 20th would be here last day for two weeks as her & her family are going camping for two weeks. Tristen doesn't go Fridays so Thursday was his last day with her was Thursday July 19. Saturday Cindy her husband Henri and there two boys left to go camping. Sunday July 22, 2007 at about 4:30pm the families home went up in flames. The neighbours failed to extinguish the fire. It took them a while to get a hold of the family. By then there was nothing left of there home. I didn't find out till Monday when I picked Tristen up for Churchill. The first thing that came to mind is thank god they where not home. I found a few write ups about the fire that I wanted to share with my friends. The Northern life article there are comments at the bottom and I can tell you that some people can be so rude. Today from 12-5pm there was a BBQ held at a neighbours house to raise money for the boys to buy some new toys and clothes. It was a good turn out. We are still hoping to get some more donations in and try to help this family as much as we can. It was nice to see that there are really good people in this world that care about there friends, family, and even strangers. I was there from about 1pm-4pm. The family was not at the BBQ as its still very hard for them to see there house. So please feel free to check out these tow articles and there is also pictures on the Northern life article that you can view.
