howdy from Texas!

Dear long lost church family,
I'm sorry it has taken me so long to write, things have been pretty busy. But since it has taken me so long I will give you a day by day update!
Saturday: the ride went well and The Colony church was sooooo kind! We went to the lake for the Fourth celebration and had an awesome time. The fire works alone made the six hour trip well worth while (Headrick family, i wouldn't mind returning next year to that lake...hint hint).

Sunday: the church service was very good (of course not as good as yours Pastor Deborah ;) ). We joined the rest of the congregation in "The Call2Fall". It was a great experience. We loaded the van (with about 2 dozen amazing doughnuts) and headed out. Finally, we arrived at Port Neches about 8:00.

Monday: Camron/Cam-wow and I were the lucky ducks who were assigned breakfast duty. We woke up at five-thirty, and fixed eggs and sausage for thirty people (our Logos cooks would be sooo proud!) One word explains monday.... HOT. We thought it was smoldering, but in all realization, it could have been waaaaay worse! We found out that the family we were helping has a sixteen year old soon with cerebral aoudfiowh (fill in the bank because I can't even pronounce that word much less try to spell it.) Anyways, he is severly handicapped. Our assigned jobs were to tile the floor, paint, and general clean up. We began our manual labor.

Tuesday: It is Cam-wow's birthday!!! And in celebration of that, God made the weather perfect! It was cloudy the entire working day, and it even rained.... POURED. The painting crew (myself, Kelly, Cam-wow, and Tracy) finished thier job! The tile crew (Chris, Charity, and Colter) also got A LOT accomplished.

Well, that catches me up to right now. We love you and miss you all. Thanks to those who have written us letters, they really brighten our day. And thank you all for your thoughts and prayers!
