What to do in case of fire

What would you do if you came upon this scene?


That's easy. Call up cousin Eric and get him on the job.











Here you see him with his fire-fighting team. Uh, hey guys, You wanna turn around and see the surprise behind you? (Eric is front row, third from left and, like all his buddies, with his back to the main point of business.)














Do something quick!!!











Phew! They did it!















These are the trucks his company uses. Now seriously, Eric takes his position with the fire department very earnestly. (What you've seen here is only a practice run. That's why the firemen can stop and pose for a picture.) Eric's known to disappear from his bed in the middle of the night and answer the call of duty. He not only puts out fires, he helps heart attack victims and people injured in auto accidents. It seems the medical field is the place for Eric to be - we're thrilled he is training to be a Registered Nurse and who knows where he will go from there.

Guess who




Which of the people in this family photo is a renowned author (well, at least, in the Seagle household he/she is renowned.)? He/She wrote the book entitled: A Dress for Anna: the Story of the Redemption of the Life of a Ukrainian Orphan. It is being published by FaithWalk Books. Grandpa and I don't know when, but we hope within the next year. However, if not in the next 3 years the publisher will relinquish rights to it.

The book is the story of how God spoke to a couple and led their family to adopt a little girl from Ukraine, provided for them and guided them to people to help them adopt her, as well as how they found her among the 20,000+ orphans in Ukraine. It also tells the story of her orphanage, the other children there and the adoption process in Ukraine. The final portion of the book tells the story of her adjustment to her new family and their understanding and dealing with the ramifications of her disabilities.

Answer: It's Aunt Debbie and we'll let you know the day it is published. Deb, we're proud of you just like we are proud of all our off-spring, their spouses and kids.
