We, we. I just wanted you to see this. My girls are dressed up for the formal event. I don't know if you can hear the exquisite music playing in the background, but they have joined the royal family. Kids, girls. In what is a very formal event. I don't know how well you can hear this. Nita, get in here and tell us a little bit about what's happening. Right behind this phone. They've got beautiful lavish curtains set up. They've got fine accoutrement, beautiful bouquets of flowers. But for those watching this, what are these little girls here at Royal family Kids. Whispering Ponies Ranch getting ready to experience and for context, if you've never followed the Whispering Ponies Ranch ministry, We deal with children. We serve them Christ centered programs. These are the little kids. Oh my gosh. We may have to move. Let's move, let's move. These little girls are all dolled up. These are the kids that have been pulled out of trafficking. They're wards of the state. They've been abused in all kinds of ways and at no expense to them. They get to come here for Christ centered camping program ministry. And I, I get the feeling they're about to make an announcement. So I'm going to have to start. Stop talking. Listen. Stay tuned. Nita, tell us very quick what these little girls are about to experience.

Come on, you've got your grandpa who's going to march each one of these little girls down through the. All of these little tapes that are set up as desserts. They're going to announce their names. They're going to talk about the dresses that they picked today and why they fix them, what they want to be when they grow up. This is the point. They're starting right now. So I'm going to have.
A
We're going to have. Go. Go ahead, ladies. I'll finish up. Okay. I had to duck out. They're starting, but sorry. Coming through. Walking through a kitchen backwards is not a smart idea when they're hustling trays of food. I wish often that I could flip the cell phone around the other direction so you can see for yourself what's happening. But all these little girls. Hey, Dustin, you want in? This is my guy, Dustin Wobker. You might remember him from a couple of years ago. He was one of the guys that stepped up to be a counselor in 2024 when the Royal Family kids were looking for male counselors. This is the real deal. He's doing maintenance this week and we just found out moments ago that he might have an opportunity the last week of July to be a counselor again because we've got a group looking for a counselor.
