Today was a blast! We had a good sized crew (Me, Nathan, Rumell, Karen, Christi, Shaquille, Brittany and James)! We went over to Melissa's again and we started cleaning up across the street. We trimmed the bushes a little bit and I took a bunch of vines off these tree's but for the most part we picked up trash and let me tell you, it was overwhelming! There was smelly stuff all over and we picked up like 10 bags full and it didn't even make a dent in it. That left us all discouraged going into lunch. We had a good lunch time and then we went back and decided that we were going to stop picking up trash and just play with the kids and hang out with people from the neighborhood. We played dominoes with older people from the neighborhood and soccer/ piggy in the middle (monkey in the middle) with the kids! It was a really great time and it went by so fast! Then we said our goodbyes, packed up and left! That was sad a little. But then we debriefed and drove Rumell and Shaquille home. We had to say goodbye to them which was also sad because they are going camping/hiking in Texas tomorrow! I was really encouraged by Shaquille because on Tuesday he was set on not coming today but he ended up coming and it rocked! Woo hoo!
Tomorrow, well I'm not sure what we're doing but it's in God's hand. Hooray
love you
