Busy as always

Trying to catch up seems to be the normal here now. But with work and teams, time is precious. Add Abbie into that equation and you can see busy is the word.

We had another team...and man did they work. We had 9 people, but two left for another trip after a day and a half. So, we had 7. Two were the gals (one mom and one daughter) who did the cooking, so it was 5 men working. Let me fill you in on just a little of what these guys did while here....
Completed a roof for a Sunday school building; put in 3 (yes THREE) septic systems, one for a home, two for churches; made a tool to put in the fence posts for our yard, and put the posts in; worked on a vehicle that had some problems; and did other odd jobs around here. So, busy did not quite fit...they were ULTRA busy. And yet, had a morning at the Citadel. And to top it off, they were a great bunch of guys (and gals) who were fun to be with. Here are just a couple of their work projects...We have another team coming in next week. We are praying they will be able to help with the buckets again. They did such a fantastic job last year and it helped SO MANY, that we are more than happy to have them work on this again. Of course, there will probably be other projects for them, too...we'll see.

Every time we head to town, Abbie wants to take the camera. Her and Grandma like to get boat pictures. These pictures are a couple we both liked. The one is the fishermen bringing in a catch, like they did in Jesus time. The other is just unique sails...from banners across the road.
I'll keep this post short, but hope to keep you all updated again soon. Don will be making some food and water runs this week, so have to help get ready for that.

God bless, and keep Jesus at the center of your life!!
