We're Back!!!

We're back from our mission trip!!!! Everything went amazing....here's some pics :)Leaving bright and early Saturday morning

Among the hurricane damage that we saw

When we arrived on Sunday we hit the beach right away :)

Monday morning we started our work: drywalling, taping, mudding, and sanding a home that needed repair after the hurricane

Galveston is the most hot and humid place I've ever been. After only a few minutes of working each day, we were drenched in sweat!!

Each evening we had time off to do activities. They included: mini golfing, beach walking, shell finding, shopping, carriage riding, and the funniest....seagull feeding :) One of our students was chased by seagulls and we got it all on video :)

I loved every minute of it...even the hotness...but it does feel good to be home! Speaking of, I better get going so we can celebrate the Fourth of July! Happy Fourth of July everyone!
