2nd update

All this week I have been helping with the school. Exams have started and the last day of school for them will be on Friday. I just got through babysitting Jon, Jorge, and Cristian for two days straight. Jerry had to take Pat(su esposa) to the airport, however they had some visa issues and had to stay in Quito overnight. That has been basically my week. Jerry and Justin said they had several things for me to do over the summer, so I am looking forward to that. I know this is short, but that is basically it. Mom and Dad I will try to call tonight. If not, I will call definately in town tomorrow. I love you guys and take care.

Buenas Tardes

Hola, senora faught y natalie y todo estudiantes de espanol. Este semana es muy bien. Yo tengo no tiempo a escribir mucho. Yo pienso un viaje para dos dias este verano. Por favor, no dices a mama y papa. Yo quiero a ir hosteria para un noche. Yo intento a escribir mas en espanol cuando yo puedo, chao.

Update

Hey guys sorry for the wait. I did not have enough time to update my blog until now. I really do not know how many times I will be able to post a week, but just keep looking for them. Wow this past week has been crazy. I stayed with the Twickenham group at the camp, and it has been really amazing. The group on sunday passed out paper about a medical mission on Monday and Tuesday at the hacienda and camp. It was amazing how many people came to this event. We even had a family come to visit the church, because of the mission. On the free days, we went to Otavalo on Wednesday, and then we went to Mt. Cayambe on Thursday. We stopped at the refuge which was about 16,500 ft above sea level. It was amazing to see such harsh conditions with the snow and cold at about 20 miles away from the equator. I also got to see tundra, again who would have thought to see tundra so close to the mitad de la mundo. After the group left on Friday to Quito, I had to baby sit Jon, Jorge, and Christian that night and all day Saturday. We just played games with all the stuff I got. (All the kids were really excited when they saw the sporting equipment.) I really do not know what this week has ahead of me. Jerry told me that this week is the end of school. So I will not be doing PE everyday. I hope everything is going well with you guys in the states take care and God Bless.
P.S.- I have tons of photos for you guys on this blog.
P.P.S.-Mom, can you check with the travel agent on the flight info back. I know the date when I return, but I do not know the times at all,thanks.

leaving(finally)

hey less than 24 hours then I finally leave. (woot woot) I am all packed and ready to go.(almost) Can't wait to get down there. I would like to take this time for Josh King. 1st-I tried to send you an email but it was a no go. 2nd- I have decided to up the ante and post twice a week at least. It is going to be tough but I think I can. Here are some things I want to do. I want to get a to do list. I have to wait and figure out a whole lot more than cow tipping and bringing the concept of "rolling houses" to Ecuador. Also I am going to do a photo blog so you can see all of the photos. Oh yeah and I also want to bring a "word of the day". So these are a few things that I am going to do with this blog. Take care and I hope to write in the next couple of days.

Hola!

Hey guys this is my first post for the summer of Ecuador. Okay I am not in Ecuador yet, but it is close enough. I cannot wait to get down there. I will not post everyday, but I hope to post at least once a week. Also do not be suprised if I post in Spanish every once in a while. Oh sorry for the people that might just stumble on this blog: This summer I am going to Ecuador to work for an orphanage. Ok with that out of the way, I guess that is all I have to say. I will probably post once more before I leave on June 2nd. (woot woot) Hasta Luego!!!
