My Summer Adventures 2011

Moday: First day of work!

so today we had our first day of work and i am TIRED. :) we painted all day long!

i had the job of "cutting" (not the emo kind)

this is where you take a brush and you paint up along the edges of the ceiling where the roller cant reach. this is especially hard because it is NOT the same color of the ceiling.

anyways, today my friend Kelsey said something really cool. when we were putting the second coat of color on, she said "it's cool how when you put the first coat on, it is just a wall with color. but when you do more coats, it almost gets deeper.. making it a room!"

wow! think about that... in our lives, (walls) we are using God to sort of "paint" us. if we let him give us one coat, we look like everything is ok, and it is bearable. but if we let him paint more and more coats, we get deeper and deeper in him! then we are a real room... one that he can set up and fill like it should be. :)

anyways, that is my thoughts for today on that.

so this is what our schedule looks like basically every day:

6:30 - get up and pack lunch and check what sight you are working at for the day

7:00 - breakfast

7:45 - devotions

8:00 - pack the truck and head to work sight

10:30 - morning break

12:00 - lunch

2:30 - afternoon break

4:00 - clean up the sight

4:30 - head home

5:00 - showers

6:00 - dinner

6:30 - check in ~ what happened with everyone today?

7:00 - (on wednesdays only) wednesday night bible study

during this break we usually go to check the crab traps. we wade into the gulf (till we can hardly touch!) to poles where we have tied them down :) so far three crabs and counting!

10:00 - back at house

10:30 - lights out

so this is the average day... :) loads of fun!!!!
