Amazing, Thank You

Hello from Noodles & Sam!
The last few weeks have been amazing. Noodles and Sam (and the team) have had so many great things going on it is hard to keep up. Thank you  to our friends around the world for your great e-mails and adventure offers. The response to Noodles and Sam is amazing! Take a look at some of the happenings around The Adventures of Noodles and Sam...
Haiti
Noodles and Sam will be leaving next week to go to Haiti. They will be going there with a team of doctors and nurses on a missions trip. They are very excited about this trip. Haiti is a special place to them and has been in their prayers since the horrible earthquake. This trip came up unexpectedly and they didn't have a chance to raise any money for the kids there. They are hoping they will get another chance to go in the near future and will have time to raise money.
Washington D.C.
Noodles and Sam were scheduled to visit Washington D.C. next week. Due to the Haiti trip the D.C. trip had to be rescheduled. The family they will be visiting in D.C. offered to move their trip out a week to allow Noodles and Sam to visit Haiti and still visit D.C. Noodles and Sam want to say a big thank you to them.
Voting
Noodles and Sam voted for the first time yesterday. It was a great experience and they learned how important it is. They learned about the process of studying the candidates, visiting the polling location and actually filling out your ballot. We have some great pictures and should have them on the site in the next few days. It was great!
Wristbands
Our "The Adventures of Noodles and Sam" wristbands have arrived. We have started sending them out to all of the members of the Noodles and Sam Fan Club. If you are a member you should be receiving it in the next week. If not be sure to become a member and you will get one too. We will get a picture of them on the site, they are pretty cool. Everybody loves them (they were designed by Noodles and Sam)
It's a wrap
We are trying to get some of the open projects wrapped up on The Adventures of Noodles and Sam. We are still finishing the Cambodia page and video, book review videos, and several other little projects. Noodles and Sam have so much going on it is hard to keep up. Thank you for making them so popular! Make sure to find us on Facebook.
Until next time,
The Adventures of Noodles and Sam team

Lots of Things Going On!

Noodles and Sam say hello,
They have been so busy getting ready to come home we haven't spoken to them much the last few days. They have been in a part of Cambodia with no internet and little phone access. This has been there longest trip yet; although they are doing some great things we are missing them and can't wait until they get home on Thursday!
They have a lot of exciting things going on so we have been helping them out here while they are gone. Some of the things we need your help with.....
International Skype Video
As you probably know our skype video call to Cambodia went great but wow, editing the video is way more time consuming than we expected. Let us know if you have any tips or suggestions, the help would be great. Keep in mind we use a Mac.
Around The World
All of your e-mails have been great. Noodles and Sam would love to come visit you and learn about where you live. Remember that kids and families all over the world want to see what makes where you live special no matter how big or small your city is. The more information the better. We would love to know if there is a learning or travel adventure you haven't seen. Let us know at info@noodlesandsam.com !
Haiti
We are pretty excited to share some news with Noodles and Sam when they return from Cambodia. They have had a desire to see Haiti and hopefully bring some attention to the long road of healing that is still ahead of them. They have been wanting to raise some money for the kids there like they did for the kids in Cambodia. It is a desire they pray about everyday. We found out yesterday that our church will be sending a medical team there next month. We spoke to the missions pastor about taking Noodles and Sam with them. Hopefully it will work out, if not we will wait for the next opportunity and keep the people there in our prayers.
UPS
We mentioned a while back that UPS invited Noodles and Sam to take a learning adventure tour of their 3rd largest facility. We took the tour and they were great but due to security reasons we weren't allowed to take the pictures. UPS took all of the pictures during the tour and explained everything as we went along. Unfortunately we have never heard from them again. We hope their tour team is okay and we hope they will eventually send us the pictures so we can share them with you. It is really strange.
Remember to Vote
Next week Noodles and Sam will be visiting the Mayor of our city as well as meeting all of the city council members. They were learning about government just before they left and how important it is to vote. One thing they reminded The Noodles and Sam team about was to make sure you study before you vote. Make sure you know what you are voting for before you get there. They will be voting so I am sure they will have pictures for you.
Facebook & Twitter
Make sure to check us out on Facebook and Twitter (the team thinks 222 friends and growing is pretty awesome)! Keep spreading the word and help us get the number even higher. We would love it if you could help us get it to 500.
Thank You,
It has been another great week at The Adventures of Noodles and Sam. we want to thank all of our friends from around the world. As always we want to say a special hello to our new friends in Washington D.C. and New York City, New York.
Until next time,
The Adventures of Noodles and Sam team
