Why am I retaining water?

There are always such good inside jokes and funny moments on this trip. 
Guess who this one is from?

... and floor day

Rhonda, Kristen, Pastor G, Brad, Dennis, and Alexis also finished the floor today.

Day 6 - Roof Day

Day 6 (the 5th work day) marks that finishing touch of putting on the roof.  Royce, Eddie, and Mike Greene worked on top and Jeremy, Greg, Rick, and Orfilio passed up the sheets of tin.

End of Day 5

Alexis, Vilma, and their kids and other relatives pose for a picture at the end of day 5 (4th work day).  C channels are set in place and half the floor is poured. 

The young man on the bicycle to the left is Kevin.  He is Alexis' brother and lives nearby.  He is a friendly, hardworking young man who helps keep mezcla mixed for us all day.  As soon as we are finished he hops on his bike to ride to the futbol (soccer) field to play with his friends.

Girls line up for braids and hairbows

A Walk in the Woods

This is a beautiful area of mango trees behind the home and church where we are serving.  The family that lives in this area allowed the church to meet in their yard until the church building was just recently completed.
