It is official!!

For those who do not know, we will be hosting a foriegn exchange student from China. Her name is Nan Tang. Nan called Thursday night for "Miss Anna" at 10:30 pm EST but it was 10:30 am for her. Her plane will be arriving Aug 26 and we all could not be happier.

It has been a rough 4 weeks fighting with every obstacle imaginable to get her ok'd for school. Until just 6 days ago, neither the Public nor Private schools were willing to forgoe their policies to make this happen. Thank you God for loop holes!!

While we have a picture of her, I will not post it until we have the permission of either her or her family......so you have something to look forward to. The final outcome for the school is Farragut High School just 2 minutes from our home. I was haveing some serious flash backs walking through their halls.

Keep our family (which now includes Nan) in your prayers. We are all extremely excited about the possibilities,
James Council
