We left at 4:30am Monday morning and the bus ride down was very memorable. It was 90° something in the bus [the ac quit] and we were stuck in traffic. But oh well...we made the best of it... and we were all ready to reach our destination that evening!!
👆 Mariah, Me, & Lauren early Monday morning (spirits high!!)
We worked and worked in the heat...real feel was over 100°. But it was so much fun working with other youth. We accomplished soo much and learned to know each other very well.
☝️ a group of us girls went off camp and helped an older couple move into the community there.
👆 the finished job...we felt a big sense of accomplishment!!
👆 Hanna and I put in hours of cleaning up brush!! The guy in charge showed us a big section of brush and told us he wanted it cleared...we did most of it, although a few people did help us a little here and there. It was so fun!
☝️ the cousinhood
☝️ me and cousin Ben. We had a water battle fight going on a lot of the week...so we thought we needed an "enemies of water battle picture." 😂
☝️ the Martin's of the youth group
👆 the whole clan (yes, there were about 65 of us)
We had such an awesome week...I am so thankful for all the happy memories...memories that I will cherish for a while!!
