It is Saturday (Sabado), September 9th! This picture may not look like much is happening, but let me tell you that by the end of the day today this room and the 2 bedrooms had 2 coats of paint on the ceilings!! A huge accomplishment! But let me tell you what else happened. With everyone working all our family and lots of workers, we cleaned the and smoothed the interior walls, the sanding of the outside of the south of the house started, the bathroom in our room has the walls tiled, the cement is poured for the base of the retainer wall that will go around the "veranda" or outside area, the girls bathroom has the top of the walls sanded, and the house is closer than it has ever been to becoming our home!! Valentin worked his butt off, to get today to the point that it is. He is just the greatest. He worked until 7:30 tonight in the dark to finish the last coat of paint on the girls room. Tomorrow is Sunday, our family considers it a day of rest, but with things so close and the same workers there tomorrow as today who knows what will happen. We are going to a larger church tomorrow that are looking forward to the "Canadians" coming and they are serving lunch after, then we absolutely need to go to the market. We go to bed tonight satisfied from a days work that brings us closer to a long awaited goal. May God bless you. Love, Rhea

Hi to the Davies Bunch!
So glad to hear that the work on your house is moving right along. When you move in it'll feel like you're in the Hilton.
It sounds as if you're all working hard but are happy in all you do. It's a great opportunity to get to know things about each other you may never have discovered.
We miss your laughs Rhea!
