July 17

Today we went back to Del Norte, and worked. We dug some more holes, and laid some more concrete. We tore down the existing fence and prepared the ground for cinder blocks. Mom and dad and Uncle time dug and pushed wheel barrows all day. they were very tired. Victoria and some of the other group members bought flowers and they planted them in the planter that they sealed the other day. around 4, the kids came out and we games with them and we brought a pinyata, hope I spelled that right, and the kids had a blast. it was great to see them smilling and having fun!! At Del Norte they have a bakery that helps raise money for the home. the bread is sooooo good, and the cookies and suger buns a great. Uncle Tim bought a whole tray of cookies and gave them to the kids. It was so cool, and so nice of him. Unfortunatly Uncle Tim and my parents leave Tomorrow, but I am so happy that I was able to share this amazing experience with them!

Adam, Glad to hear that you've been keeping your Mom and Dad busy. I am heading to Cincy tonight for the weekend and will miss not seeing you there. I've been trying to keep up with what you're doing each day. As I said before I am so proud of your dedication to those kids and all of your hard work. You continue to inspire all of us who know and love you. Tell your Mom and Dad, I am looking forward to seeing them tomorrow. Lots of Love

Adam, I can't imagine how exhausted your parents and uncle Tim must be. It's a good exhausted knowing that you're truly helping and making a difference in their lives. The more I read the more I really think I'd like to have this experience. Who knows maybe you'll go back and I can join you. Thanks for all the updates, I enjoy reading them each day. Safe trip home for mom, dad and uncle Tim. I love you!
