New Pictures of Liam
Liam decided a manilla envelope would make a good hat.
He was all smiles at lunch time.
Cornhusker Liam!

Queen For A Day
This last monday, I had the amazing oppertunity to participate in a program called Queen For A Day.
Between 100 and 200 women were brought to a beautiful hotel from all across the region from homeless shelters, shelters for abused women and the like for a day of pampering.
They were escorted into the hotel by men in suits (several of which where navy men IN UNIFORM....so sexy...) amidst all of us volunteers clapping and cheering them on, and treated to a catered lunch and then after lunch went to different "stations" to receive their makeovers. There was stations for hair cuts, make-up, pedicures and foot baths/massages, manicures, new clothes and more. After three 1/2 hours of pampering, the ladies were brought back to the banquet room by their "Servant" (this is what I did, I personall took a lady around to the stations she wanted to go to....some Servants had more than one lady) and had desert, a concert and a touching "Rose Ceremony" in which each lady was escorted to the stage and presented with a rose. I didn't actually get to stay for the desert/concert/Rose ceremony because I had to go home, but all in all, it was an amazing (albeit exhausting) day and I really hope to be able to continue helping out with this.
What an amazing and fun way to show God's love to women, most of whom have been hurting, discarded, and abused for most of their life.
If any of you would like more information about Queen For A Day and how you could help out for the next one, send me a comment or a message and I will get the information to you!
