We were up, at least most of us by around 6:30am due to the craziness around here. We are patiently waiting for breakfast. Some of the guys were up at 5 sorting tools with Bob- Gabriel, David, John, and Mauricio. We tried to wake Mikey to document but after 2 unsuccessful attempts, Bob gave up. Mikey and Heidi are working on a documentary- should be lots of filming today. We are working on Union today- building 6 homes. Everyone will be on this trip. Looks like rain. Jan Matthews says hi to her kids and grandkids!! Lots of kisses and hugs to all. Someone from Devins church needs to let his family know about the blog and how to sign in. He is doing well, but thought he would have email access. Paulette- you are missed, Jerome is doing great hanging out with the guys. Julie- PJ slept the whole flight and is doing well, as are Kate and Hayden- fun grocery shopping with them-Hayden got her hug?? and also her Evian water!! The food last night was really good- no mystery meat, very good BBQ pork (at least i think that is what it was). I will be handing out the blog notebook, so there should be lots of personal messages tomorrow, unless we are worn out tonight!!!

Note from Jan/Mom
Glad everyone had a good night but are my messages getting thru? I'm a newbie! Sweet Hayden is fun to grocery shop with or any kind of shopping-maybe she'll learn not to be so picky on this trip! Really strange communicating via computer-don't know how you kids do it-I want to leave you messages ALL the time! Hugs and kisses.....mom
Hello everyone! We are praying for an amazing trip for all of you and that God supplies everything needed to make that happen. We also pray that you see His presence acitively working in you and the lives of those around you throughout this trip. We are missing you already, but know that each of you are fulfilling a part of God's plan for your life and that is just beautiful!
All our love,
Matt, Gina, and Jillian
BOO-
I miss you and I love you! Take lots of pictures to show me.
Love,
Jillian
Hope you all had a very successful day today! I can't wait to see the documentary that Mikey and Heidi are working on. If it's anything like the last two films i've seen it will be awesome! I'm so excited that Hayden found her water. I can just see the excitement on her face. Heather I hope that you have your journal with you, can't wait to read about your experiences. Chris i'm sure you will have lots to talk about also. Love you both so much!! Love to everyone else. Kiss, Kiss.
Love Mum & Dad
Hi, please tell Devin I can communicate via the blog. All's well here.
Hey Kate,
I know you will be worn out today.
Remember to be careful with your knee. Keep dry and healthy. I miss you and your laugh.
Love you,
Mom
Glad to read that you all made it over there safely. I look forward to reading the blogs daily while you are way over there doing good will. Alyssa is definitely feeling the pain of not being at Nana and Papa's this week. She is having withdrawals and not liking that she has to go to bed and get up early. Have fun, work hard and be safe. We love you both lots...!!
:o) Ali
Hey Cary,
I am in and sending this as a test. Hope everyone had a great first day working, can't wait to hear how everyone is doing. I will let the parents know about the blog, so they can keep up with all the news. Loraine

Gabe.
Hi Nana & Papa....it is Bryanna and Ciara. We miss you guys SO much!! How was your day today? Ciara went to MOSI today and she had a great time. Bryanna is happy that so only has 2 more days of summer school. We hope you are having a good time and being safe. I cant wait to see you and hear about the trip when you get back. Tell Ms Tonia, Ms Tami, Mr Keith, Hayden, Kate and all the other kids I said hello and be safe. I will look forward to reading your daily progress. Love you lots! Nana give Papa a hug and kiss from us and tell Papa to give you (nana)a hug and kiss from us.
Love you LOTS!
Bryanna & Ciara

Hi Tonia, Keith,
I hope you had a productive day today! I just thought that you might like to know the vitamins came in today. Suzanne, Stephanie, Tom and I all have our bags ready to go. Heather and Chris, Dad and I are so very proud of you! Chris I got your FCAT scores today. Way to go! You did awesome! You got a Certificate of Achievement. I'll tell you how you did Saturday. Keep up the great work! Love to everyone!
Mum, Dad, (Miss B) Hi pumpkin!
From the Betz
We hope that today God has given you the strength and abilty to work harder and do more than you thought possible! Our God is in control and we are asking that he gives each of you what you need to continue to do His work. Thank you for being His hands and His heart in Honduras. You ALL are amazing!
Much love to each of you!
Matt, Gina, and Jillian
