I'm confused though; I thought I made all the pictures the same size, which is actually too small I see now. But three of them are humongous. I guess you learn as you go!

I know....it makes me cry every time I think of it. This is where my daughter Ashley worked for a year after she graduated from ORU. When I go there, I see the fence that she built, and the baby beds that she built by hand, and it makes me so proud of her, because she is definitely the "Barbie" type, not a tool person. But the faith there just inspires you to go beyond yourself! I HATE getting dirty and sweaty, so it's my one time of the year to be really stretched. LOL!

It makes me think about Jesus preparing our homes in heaven though. He is doing it himself, just for us.
I know what you mean, I hate sweating too. Praise the Lord for people like you, your daughter, and all the others that go and do the work. Appreciate you a lot and pray for y'all.

Re: Finally........Costa Rica Pictures!
WOW...what an industrious people…and my how you all must have worked pulling out nails, building and all the other things. I am sure the people were blessed above measure to have you all there.
Those pictures are awesome...so amazing to see what people can do from "scrapes"
No one will ever know what a visit means to the ones on the field…a visit, a phone call a letter, an e mail…
Thank you and your group for caring enough to give…not only money but giving of your time and talents to help those that have so little to give in return.
I love missions and all those that do anything in any way to help someone else…

Our guys were amazing! I had no idea that we had that kind of talents in our group. Nail pulling and sanding is hard work, but it doesn't require much talent. LOL!

Re: Finally........Costa Rica Pictures!
Awesome!!! I love to travel overseas and be a blessing like you folks are doing. There is nothing like it when you give to folks like this who have so little and yet so much!!!
