A glimpse of our week

Sunday night Mom, Dad, Rick, and Patti arrived in La Ceiba to a dinner of pupusas from a new found restaurant… they arrived without all of their luggage, but it has since been recovered.

Monday the guys went straight to work with John getting started building beds for Puerta de Esperanza.  They have been working near 12 hour days to get these beds done.  Each girl will have a bed/dresser that they made.  Here is the work in progress.  They look awesome and the mattresses should arrive tomorrow.

Monday night we were able to give the Clow girls some fun birthday surprises!  Becca got a massage table that Patti brought and massage lessons all week.  And Abi got a new sewing machine and sewing lessons from my mom.  She’s already working on a new skirt!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tuesday I woke up to this game happening on the dining room floor.  I’m not sure the rules were ever spoken out loud, only communicated through actions… but everyone got to play.

Then the boys went over to help with the bed construction for a little while… and ended up helping some and doing a little bit of playing…

Yesterday and today, Caitlin, mom, Patti, and I did lots of shopping for stuff for the house, errand running, and loving on boys.  And mom and Patti are teaching their afternoon classes of course. 

We are tired, but really enjoying our time together!  And getting lots done all at the same time :)
