Day 2: Entry by Makinzie Thomas

First full day in Mexico.  Here's the details...

Today we helped build a house.  We woke up early, got ready, and headed over to the building site. We built the second story on the house. The house was on top of a hill so we thought it was going to be really hard to get wood and supplies up to the house. We made an assembly line and we actually got everything up to the house pretty quick. It is amazing what teamwork can do! Once we got everything up there we started on the second story! Most of us moved dirt. It was really tiring! A few people worked on the actual house and at the end of the day we got a lot done! At the house there were a few kids. It was so fun playing with them! They were so helpful and giving! A little boy I didn’t even know offered me and a whole bunch of other people some cheez-it’s when he only had a little bit of them! All together today was a success! When we arrived back, we had some fantastic spaghetti and just hung out. Today was a great day and we got a lot done!
