It's Been a Couple of Weeks....

Sorry for no update in a long time. Here are a few things that have happened in the last couple of weeks:

1. Jesse and I took our church’s youth group down to Ensenada, Mexico the last week of June. We framed and put up drywall on the second story of a church (La Escalera de Jacob-Jacob’s Ladder), sanded and painted window bars and doors. We had a great time serving the people of Mexico. I’ll post some pictures up soon.

2. No updates on my crazy allergic reaction. The last time I got tested nothing happened. I have to setup another appointment and take stronger drugs to see if it causes anything.

3. Jesse and I are still house hunting, which is always fun.

4. We are going to my cousin’s wedding in about two weeks in Los Angeles. While we are down there we are going to go to Disneyland, which is always exciting but Jesse has never been there so that will be extra fun.

5. Our plans for Peru trip are on track, so the next step is to buy our plane tickets. If you want to come let us know!

6. Rocky got a haircut by a professional groomer so he looks funny and cute. I bought him a doggie couch which he looks really cute on. I post some pictures too.

Mexico Mission Trip

We are back from Ensenada, Mexico. We arrived in Fremont, around 11:00 o’clock at night very tired and dirty. We’ll post more about our adventures in Ensenada but a quick overview.

Twelve people went with our group. We sent four of our people out to other groups as translators. Two others helped another group build a roof and the rest of us painted the clinic and poured concrete. No one was left in Mexico, but we did get stopped at the border for fruit smuggling. We’ll post pictures and more stories. Overall, we had a great time serving the Lord in different ways. Also, thank you Danny for making us laugh so much that our abs hurt.

By the way Ricky Borba, I wrote cemetery wrong because in Spanish it is spelled with an “n”.
