Trip #2: Baylife Church

Hey everyone,

So I had my kiddos this past week and I am so very proud of each one of them! They drywalled their little hearts out, painted, worked on the ramp, put up trim (window, baseboards, and crown molding), sanding, mudding... They did an amazing job! I saw so many of them grow in so many different ways. I can't wait to come back home in August to see what they have done with their growth.

Greg let Allie and I take over the work site on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. We got to plan out all the teams, figure out what work was to be done, etc. We decided the team had worked really hard one day and went to the beach in the afternoon. That was fun - Greg found a dead fish with teeth which was really freaky looking.

Saturday after we sent off Baylife, we went to Charleston, SC and explored down there. We went to the market - and Sticky Fingers for lunch. And we saw Ratatouille (spelling?) which is a hilarious movie! We went grocery shopping - getting good at planning food for large groups!

Our new group is from Michigan - high schoolers (and one 8th grader). We are hoping to finish Micy's house this week so she can move in. Greg is also letting Allie and I teach different parts of Team Time - Tuesday night I am teaching the growth journal and Thursday night the Bible Study. So pray for that. Allie is teaching Wednesday night and doing growth journal on Thursday so pray for her as well!

I love you all and miss you all! My birthday is a week and a half away - then I'll be 22! Yikes! Where does the time go?

Hugs,

Joy
