we are family!!!
Shhhh don't tell my team tht I am sitting here on the porch blogging this morning but I couldn't wait to tell you all the good news! We have all become families. Somewhere during each trip the teams go from a bunch of people from different churches and this trip different states to a family. It is like magic and you can't pinpoint exactly when it happens but it does. You have your inside jokes, your nicknames. You know about their families, what they do for a living, and even what they like to eat. You watch out for each other, not just because that is what you do for people but because they are your family. I love that magic! Ok I better get back to work but I just couldn't wait to tell you that the magic has happened. Please know that our newly formed "families" will care for amd protect your family. We send our love to all of you! Now we just need your christmas lists!

This was the last day. We were really tired but felt so good about what we had accomplished
THE FURNACE!
Yup, this is how they heat their house
YOU CAN SEE HOW SMALL THE FURNACE IS
You can tell that this was underwater. I hope it works.
