July 5


Today we had Church at Douglas in the morning!!! Then we went to Del Norte! We got soo much done today it was great. I was working 2 projects at once, digging more holes and digging out the old playground equipment. Wwe had a bunch of people so it made it nice and easy to be able to float back and forth between projects and check how things were going. the holes are almost done, no worries dad haha!! We have three almost done and one last one to start. The playground equipment is really old, and welded together which makes it crazy to get apart. It is also cemented into the ground, so we were jackhemmer for a good portion of the day, I am still shacking up and down haha. We are clearing the area for the new play ground, and Gabo and I started laying out the design and marking it today!! There is a tower like structure already there, so we are going to build two more and make an L shape. The old one will connect with the middle new one by a suspending bridge, an then the last tower L'ed from the 2nd with be connected by a tube. On the last Tower we are going to put a big spiril tube slide. I told Gabo we had one at home dad, so if you cold pack the big yellow one in your suitcase that would be great!! haha. jk. We sealed the rest of the back fence wall, and also sealed and thermoteced the Library roof as well! It was soo hot today that the sealant on the roof dried in 45 min. It was crazy. The high today reached 107 degrees, and didnt let up till about 8 this evening in which it droped to 102, and finally now about 99. We got to play with the kids for a short time, I had to leave with Gabo to unload things, but I got some good pictures of the area we are clearing for the playset, and some of the kids. I love it when they nape, it is soo cute!!! Juanita is soo peacefull! Cutie!! One of the babies there is Dante, and he never stops smiling, I just want to eat him up!!!

Great day!!!!

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."

John 3:16-18

Adam,

A little boy once told me "many hands make light work". I think he really knew what that meant! You are an amazing young man, one we are are so proud of.

It took me a while to get caught up on your blog but I'm finally there and I'm now looking forward to each new day.

Uncle Mike has started gathering all this things for his trip on Saturday. He is excited and looking forward to seeing you.

Thanks for all you do, we pray for you daily and all the work you're doing in God's name.

Love you
Aunt Annette

Adam,

Please note where Lee said to save the holes for LYNN! She loves dirty hard work!

I am excited about coming and working side by side with your parents and of course Lynn. Working with Lynn is really working with Tim, Aunt Annette, Karen and Lee, Sam, Anna and Claire all of whom will be helping cover Lynn's day to day responsibilites so she can be there with us. I hope each of those support people get the same feeling of serving the Lord that we will get because in so many ways, they have the hard part by staying home and watching Aiden and Parker.

We all love you and greatly respect the work you are doing and all look forward to doing our little part to help it along.

See you shortly!

Love,
Uncle Mike
