Suzanne arrived safely!

Had a great day today on the mountain, a few groups continued to build, so far a total of 8 houses have been completed!!! Great teamwork by all. VBS was done at the church in union where the kids learned to play cat, cat, dog- because Caitlin could not say goose in spanish. lots of fun for all. Nicole G. and Kyle C. read the story of Daniel and the lions den in spanish. Carrie Nickens provided 350 origami flowers for the kids!! Kate, Hayden, Sam, Chris Smelser, Andy,and Natalie all went to a different mountain- which i cannot pronounce and served and fed 150 children for lunch, and then stayed and played with them the rest of the afternoon. We are off to the grocery store and then our nightly devotional. Thank you all for your comments!!!

To all my West Oranges: I'm so glad you all are having such an amazing time so far. Hopefully the sunburn and sore muscles haven't been too bad. I miss you all terribly, but you are in my thoughts and prayers daily.

Keith Boyer, I thank God that you were able to make the trip this year. God must know how much this mission and this team needs you...even if you can't fart chainsaws.

I hope all is well with everyone. Knowing this team and the people on it, I know God is working miracles in Honduras these next few weeks.

Be good, be safe, stay strong, love God.

In Him with LOVE!

Hayden- hi sweetheart! Daddy and I miss you so much! Did you have fun with the kids? I can't wait to here about it. Been working hard at Grannys ALL day, have you bags of jewelry. Daddy is having difficulties blogging but said to tell his boo that he loves you and misses you. He is coming up on Friday, Eli is keeping Sammy, all others are doing good. Lots of hugs and kisses, can't wait to here from you. Love Mom

Hello Everyone,
I'm so happy that Suzanne arrived safely! Hopefully, with her luggage. Yeh! Suzanne you did it! It's wonderful to hear how many houses you have been able to build! And all that has been going on with the kids. Chris and Heather it was really nice to see pictures of you at work. I hope the camel packs working out for you Chris. Can't wait to give you big hugs Saturday. Love to everyone! I went to Gina's tonight for bunko, missed you ladies that usually go! Oh my goodness did we have some laughs! I think Gina has managed to recruit some more players for when we start back at Church.
