The guys have been working hard! building fence and a lean-to for an off sight missionary. And other odd jobs.  Justin has had the chance to use his welding skills. He made a harrow, and a metal fence. The women have mostly been working in the kitchen, and watching the kids, and hemming and patching pants. They also stainned a bunch of chairs for the dinning hall. That was messy! The guys found a little scorpian in the woodpile, and the ladies are so thankful that the men found it and not them. The team threw a little birthday party for one of our teammates, with a candle in a rice crispy treat. Very creative. It was a lot of fun to have that chance to bond. All in all everything is going great, everyone has been feeling fine, with the exception of a few back aches and exhaustion. But that is expected. We all enjoy being a help to these wonderful people, but we know that we will come home more changed by  them than they will by us.
