Vamanos! =) Day 5

Hey all! Angie Kay here! (*blurb* Hi Megan! *blurb*) Hehe. Oh my goodness I have so much to talk about! I have been waiting forever to get my turn to write! OK so, First thing is first. Today we once again got up early, and after devos and breakfast, we got to work. =) We weeded for a while, which was allot of fun in the mud!(it rained all night) I was good and didn't throw mud though. Actually, around here, only 1/3 of it would be mud. Hehe. The rest would be rocks and bugs!

So we did that for an hour or so, and then got to work on the drywalling and painting. It was, again, really fun, but really hard. I had to go back and secure all the screws I screwed in yesterday 'cause they were all lamesauce and wrong. Hehe. Never said I was a tallented constructioneer. But on the other hand I learned how to measure with a tape measure. It doesn't sound so hard, but goodness, you get it open and you see all the numbers 'n stuff, and it is soooooo confusing. So we got the entire ceiling done *pause for cheering*. Shout out to Josh Harris for being the best ceiling drywall putter upper ever!!

So after we worked, we had another amazing lunch, (Mrs. Rigel is the bestest foodmaker ever.... except for you Mom! =) Hehe.), and we went to the brickyard. It was a blast!!! I hung out most of the time with little America and a couple other kids, but I also got to be part of a skit again( moment of sadness 'cause I didn't get to be an animal this time.) , and we did some really fun music! Today the craft was frizbee decoration, and that was great! The kids loved it, and afterwords we played with the kids in the rain. Best game time EVER!

So yah, we had lunch in the city, and btw, never try a cactus cortitas. It is like.... grossness. I didn't like it so much, I made a face! Seriously though. It is horrible. It has the consistency of overcooked greenbeans, and it is slimy, and the taste is... well I just wont get into that. Haha!

This trip has been soooo amazing so far. I have learned so much about God! Josh made some great devos for us, and I personally have LOVED them. You'd have to ask the others, but based on our discussions, they like it too. Today, we learned about being lights to the world 'n stuff like that. That was really cool to talk about with everyone else and see what they had to say. I had this verse in mind the entire time. Colossians 3:4. "When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory."

I just love the idea of Christ being our lives! We have so much purpose now! The old life is dead and burried, and our new life IS CHRIST! I mean, how amazing is that! Every minute, everything we do now, is Christ, and with that comes the responsibility of knowing that everything we do is now a direct representation of Him. Anyway, that's just my personal take on it. =)

Anyway, as for tomorrow, we are going to a village in the mountains five hours away!!!!! I'm soooo excited! I am not sure if we have internet there, but it's gonna be a great experience. There will be an outhouse and everything! Talk about new experiences. =) Anyway, totally Psyched for that! We'll probably be back sometime around Monday or Tuesday, so if we don't write, expect to hear from us then!

Btw, Shoutout #2 for my sisters birthdays! Jillain and Nicole Holmgren! Eeek! It's so exciting! Bummer that I miss it, so you all make up for it for me Huh? =) And Nicole, expect an awesome present from Mexico!!!!!

OK, well that's about enough for now. =) Thanks for reading my huge post and please continue praying for us in these areas.
