Hey Everyone!

My wife and I are very proud of our youngest daughter. Yesterday our 14 year old left on a 20 day trip to Europe. She is one of 25 Middle Tennessee 7th & 8 th graders(she will be a HS freshman this fall) selected for this trip as Student Ambassador's with the People To People Student Ambassador Program. These kids are recommended by their teachers and school administrators and go through an interview process before their selection to be named a Student Ambassador. With todays events in London ( even though they are not traveling to England on the trip) your prayers for her having a safe trip would be appreciated. With all the crazy people in this world you never know!

RIGHT ON!! congrats and safe wishes go with her!! Kids CAN be so cool sometimes...LOL!!

Yes congrats for your daughter and I hope she remains safe and sound on her trip!!!!!

Congrats to your daughter thats a really cool thing I am sure she is having a blast and my prayers are with her and you and your wife for her safe return .

Thanks everyone! They arrive safetly in Rome earlier today,had lunch,went swimming and write some in their journals. Tomorrow their adventure begins with a trip to Vatican City.

You should be very proud, that is a very cool thing to get into. I lived in Italy for 5 years. Where else in Europe are they traveling??

Lindsey they will be going to Switzerland,France and Austria as well as Italy.

Bey Gaetano is envious.......I know he wants to go home to Italy for a visit

Congrats to your daughter, Richard - that's a great experience for her. Hopefully it will be a little more controlled than my first European tour...
