Under $100 Linky Party and Goodbyes

Tomorrow our girl from Colombia leaves.  She, along with 6 other orphans from Colombia have been here for the month for a program called Summer of Hope.  It has been a wonderful, exhausting month.  We do not feel called to adopt at this time, but have been advocating for our sweet Erika and feel we have been called to intercede for her.  Please pray for Erika and all of the orphans of the world.  Rather than sharing highlights from last week's linky party (and there were some great links--thanks) I wanted to share Erika with you all--I hope that is okay!
With my husband and sons at Big Sky:
Milking a cow
Backyard camping


With my daughter, hiking


Erika and I


I look forward to your links this week!

Under $100 Linky Guidelines:
1.  Please link to the specific post, not your blog!
2.  Please only post ideas that cost $100 or less--it would be great if you share the cost of your project, but not necessary.
3.  Please include a brief description in link up.
4.  Grab my Under $100 button on the sidebar and include it in your post or a link to Beyond the Picket Fence so people can ind you and more great ideas.
5.  Please check and make sure your link works.  If it doesn't you can delete it and try again :)

  2. How lovely of you to take on Erica for a month! It looks like you did lots with her and that she had a great time. Wonderful of you and your family! Must have been very hard work (physically and emotionally!!)

  4. Sweet pics of Erika with your family. God will use this time in all of your lives. I'm sure He already has and will continue to. Because of this linky party, I've connected with some new blog friends. I really enjoy this and hope you keep doing it.
    Thanks
