Jan 12 Pastora Marianna's visit, Zane's cake


We attended church with Randy and Sandy at The Church of the Nazarene.  Our plan was to drive to Colonet today, but once again the plans change.  Pastora Mariana called to let us know that Roxanna was in the hospital and she was being moved to Ensenada today, so Pastora would call us and make arrangements to visit us in Ensenada. 

After church, we headed to have lunch at Randy and Sandy’s  & see if Pastora had called yet.  Pastora called to let us know they moved Roxana to Vicente Guerrero 30 miles SOUTH of Colonet!

  Pastora made arrangements to come to see us in Ensenada before we had to leave.  She had her son Adan  drive her, along with his wife Suzie, and Pastora's other son Herry to come have a visit with us tonight!  Laurissa interpreted for us, which was so very much appreciated.  They drove all the way from Vincente Guerrero (approx 2.5 hours)  to have coffee, cookies and a short visit. Unfortunately Herry has problem with his eyes and is virtually blind in one eye and only seeing shadows with his other. He has had one operation but requires more. Unfortunately we forgot to take a picture. Sometimes we're just so caught up with talking.


Because this was our last night in Mexico, Kathya wanted to make a cake to celebrate Zane’s upcoming birthday.  It was so sweet of her and Zane was so very surprised and blessed.  Randy and Sandy and their girls’ prayed over us and we prayed for them and we said our goodbyes to them and the Adams’ family.  It was an emotional time, but we know we will see them all again, its just tough at the time to say goodbye.

Jan 11 Beach and 20' of Sundae



This afternoon was a beach day!  We played volleyball at the beach, played in the ocean, gathered shells and had a blast!  What a beautiful day!  We returned to Randy and Sandy’s for supper.  The Adams’ and us prepared a big surprise for the girls’, twenty feet of ice cream Sundaes in a trough.  What a cool experience, and it tasted delisioso! 

Jan 10 Construction and Pizza


More construction today, and just helping wherever Randy and Sandy needed help.   The Adams’ family ordered pizza for everyone for supper.  This is a treat that the girls’ do not normally get.  The girls had youth group at their church tonight.

We bought a new pocket camera with 20x zoom. What a great little camera. These were taken looking toward the new girl's home from the rooftop of Huebert's house.
Zoomed all out

Zoomed all in


Feeling better and able to do some work

Cherie and her helpers made cookies.

Jan 9 Volleyball and Hamburguesa



Today, I had fun teaching volleyball to the girls’ after they were done school.  We all enjoyed it!  Some of the girls’ are taking volleyball in school, but they are not really learning the skills.  We worked on skills and played a game, it was great! 







In the evening, Peter, Randy, Greg, and Justin all went to a burger stand, which served hamburgers the size of a dinner plate!  Click the picture to see what I'm talking about. Yes it's almost 10 o'clock at night. Greg didn't finish his burger but Justin did.
