Tom- Well we have arrived at Chicago and things have went well. The only set back was at the rental counter. We were scheduled to pick up two mini vans but unfortunately one of those vans that was supposed return by another customer wasn't back yet so I had to switch things up and go with a mid sized SUV. It might be a little to tight on the way back. So we got here and after some unpacking and some socializing we found out some rules and found out what we will be doing at our work sites. Casey, Mike, and Chad are all painting this week. Jason is doing yard work. Justine is helping to clean up a boys and girls club and might also do some babysitting. I am going to a senior center and cleaning. Monica is staying at home base and helping to prepare meals and clean up after all of us. I don't know what Blake or Austin are doing yet. The theme for this week is Love Repeated. The idea being that the small acts of love that we show this week for various people can and will be repeated by the people we are serving after we have left. Tonight at our evening program the compared it to one man Jesus doing loving acts that have echoed in our world since. I'll try to put a post up everyday to keep you updated. Hopefully we will get some pictures in my next few entries.
Casey wants everyone to know that he really likes the food. Also Casey's friend Kelsey(who is in his work group) has give all of us fruit snacks and that he likes getting free food from friends.

Tom This is so cool that we have this "blogspot" to refer to. I hope all the kids have a chance to write something so we can get feedback as great as Bo's. Sounds like all is well!
