Today was my day off, but I worked this morning on the property along with my parents and Uncle Tim. It was a great day. Victoria and I were in charge of painting the upper floor of one of the teen homes. Mom went with one of the other inturns and they checked wireing and electric in all the houses. Dad and Uncle Tim worked in the clinic running electric and feeding lines. It was a lot lighter day for them. haha. In the afternoon I took a nap and I also got a chance to talk to Liz. It was great to talk to her and catch up! The kids from Del Norte came and swam and they ate dinner with the group. The kids are soo cute!
Im not sure if I have mentioned it or not, but everynight we have worship on the campus. It is just a time to reflect and pray and truly connect with God. We pray and sing, and it really brings the day to a great end!
After worship tonight dad got his head shaved by one of the group members. I asked uncle Tim if he was gonna shave his, and he said that if he did, it would be like getting a regular hair cut. haha. I am so happy that Uncle tim is down here. I Love watching him interact with the kids, and I see the Joy in there faces when he plays with them. He is great with them and it always makes me smile. I am glad that he is able to share this opportunity with me and I cant thank him enough for joining me down here. Thank you uncle tim!!!!
Victoria and I are having such an amazing experience. We become stronger in our faith, and our hearts each day.....and in our arms...haha...but we have come to know a new meaning and a greater outlook on life. We always talk about our first trip and how it changed us soo much, but when we look at the time we have had here now, we find that Gods plan for us has only just begun.

Little Dog you are one of the finest young men I have ever had the pleasure to know. Tell your parents hello. You are all doing some great work. The kids are so cute. Glad to see you are using your sun screen.
Take care Mrs Axt
You two are truly an inspiration to all of us back home. Keep up the good work. It's got to be a great feeling knowing you are making such a difference in so many lives. Be safe and keep drinking plenty of fluids.

Adam,
I looked at every one of your pictures today...I can't wait to have you over so you can give me a commentary with each one! I have questions... I love seeing your folks in the pictures - tell your mom she has never looked more beautiful, seriously! We are proud of all of you - love, mrs. b
Hey Adam! I just got your site from my mom earlier this week. I spent the boys' nap time today catching up and reading all about your trip. I am SO proud of you and all that you are doing in Mexico! Somewhere along the line I blinked my eyes and you have grown into quite a wonderful young man! I know it sounds cheesy coming from your cousin, but you can't imagine how proud I am of all the work that you are doing. Most kids your age are off thinking about themselves but you two are there giving up your summer to help other people! If only there were more people out there like you!
I'm going to continue to check your site each night and find out how you are doing. We will continue to pray for you to have a wonderful and safe experience.
Know that we are thinking about you and we love you more than anything!
Love,
Lynn (And Tim, Aiden and Parker too!)
Adam and Victoria,
You two are truly amazing! I can't get over all the work you're doing. I'm sure the kids love all the attention from "Orange Adam". You are wonderful with all the little 2nd cousins here so I can only imagine how you are with the little guys in Mexico. We will continue to pray for your journey and safe return home. We love you bunches.
love Aunt Annette & Uncle Mike
