We're gearing up for another great day here in Ensenada. Yesterday we arrived at our site with birthday presents and a cake for Santana, their youngest son who turned 8. Our family consists of Jose Louis Martinez (dad) Romina Serena (mom) Lirio (daughter 13) Alan (son 12) Jonathan (son 9) and Santana. Jose and Romina make donuts and deliver them door to door, but they are working on the house with us this week. Romina also has been making lunch for us each day (muy bueno!), even though we've asked her not to go through trouble since we are packing our own lunches.
The house is coming along! Yesterday we finished framing the roof and began adding shingles. Taylor hopped on the roof and spent most the afternoon helping up there. Nicole did some painting, then went off with the VBS crew in the afternoon. Cindy and I hung drywall inside for much of the day and we headed back for the Yugo site around 5:30.
After dinner and chapel, the highlight of the evening has been the taco runs to Pablano which is a few blocks from the Yugo complex. We load up the vans, often with 30-40 folks and enjoy delicious tacos!
Gotta run to breakfast, looking forward to being Energized, Engaged, and Enduring today as we complete the mission God has called us to. (1st Thessalonians 1:3 - our theme for the week)
