FEMA

Okay, so I hinted at the fact that FEMA came through. From the Magic Kingdom I applied to FEMA and then was called at MGM Studios with news of a FEMA representative, he wanted to meet with us the Monday after we got back. It was a short tour around the house and we thought, "now we wait". Well, the next day I had to call up FEMA offices to give them some info I don't normally carry in my purse and the WONDERFUL person on the phone informed me that a check had already been issued, now, I have to admit there was scepticism still, I had heard we could be waiting awhile, boy, was I wrong! Yesterday, in the mailbox, is a check for almost half of what we need to rebuild! Praise God! Now that we are dry and have some cash to buy the materials, we can start to rebuild! Our rebuilding schedule is this:

Mondays 6pm-9pm
Thursdays 6pm-9pm
Fridays 6pm-9pm
Saturdays 8am-8pm

This is so very flexible as far what will be done, but it's a goal we're setting. We want to try and get as much man/woman power as possible to get as much done as possible. Any specialist in any area would be great, but if all you can do is sweep - please join us!

These are pictures of how the house looks right now, no rain water or sewage! Dry as we can get and I can't wait to take pictures as things improve even more!

Thank you so much for all your support and prayers in this adventure thus far, we have been so blessed by all of you in so many ways! Our prayers have been answered and God has brought us this far, we know He will continue to be with us till it's completion. We are still not sure of the plan or "big picture" here, I'll let know, or maybe you all can let us know! I know there will be so many things that God will bring good from this one disaster, we have certainly been blessed through this process, as odd as that sounds. We have found comfort in all your words and have even received cards and e-mails from people in the U.S. as far as Idaho, keeping us in their prayers, God is truly at work here. Rob and I pray that there is testament given of God's faithfulness to everyone who hear our story.
