As word kept coming that our loved ones were
ok, I decided it was
ok to pull out the camera and start documenting. I know a lot of the team members won't believe all that has happened in our small town. Brad's sister
texted last night and said a news station was coming to the house in a few minutes and that she and her dad would like for the girls and me to come over(Brad was still working). I threw the girls shoes and coats on, gave them a quick glance to make sure they looked camera worthy(believe it or not I am a very shy person, so I REALLY didn't want to be on TV, but desperate times call for desperate measures, so I didn't know what to expect). We were walking out the door and I smelled "poo". *Sigh* Mel went number 2, so I ran back to her room, changed her, in what was probably record time, and we were out the door. Once, I walked in the garage , I happened to look down and realized, I had my slippers on! Once again, didn't want to be on TV, but you never know. I ran back in the house put on some shoes and we were on our way! FINALLY!
I pulled in the driveway to see this...

And reporter and camera man in my in-laws home. I thought to myself, "Colleen is not going to believe this. I am

Once we found word that the Haitian student had found our group, word spread SO fast. Within, literally, 5 seconds of finding this info out ourselves, I had people
texting me wanting to know if it was true. The reporter called Tom and wanted to know if he could come back for a second interview. Tom agreed and here they are doing the second interview...

By the way, I did not have to be interviewed.
Yay for me!! The quality of these pix isn't the best(kind of dark), but I didn't want to use my flash and disrupt their lighting.
