Southeastern University, FL

This week during Semana Santa (Holy Week) we welcomed a team for 2 days.  Normally we don't have teams during Semana Santa because everything at the Project is closed, but the leader is a friend and his team was only came to the Project for 2 days--one day for Children's Homes activities and the second day for work--we obliged!

The team was from Southeastern University in Florida, and they came with a great group of kids.

We had a great time playing and working!

Check out their time with us!


The Team!
 Day 1 was all about the kids.  We started off with a tour and then we played with the kids and then ate lunch with them!

Hanging out with the littles in the shade

Playing at the playground!

Playing soccer with the bigs!

LUNCH!
 After lunch, the team had a few games and activities, and then we finished the day with a WATER BALLOON FIGHT!

Getting ready to start the war!

Everyone running!

Check out Brett's mad ninja skills!

It was a free for all!


As you can see there are hardly any kids--that's because our kids in the homes got cold! Especially the littles!  But ALL had a good time!

Day 2 was not as fun--it was work, work, work!  All of Phase 2.
We were going to receive a lot of material and so we needed to move some bricks and coffee wood so it was out of the way when the material arrived!

Thankfully, we got it all done (except for some of the coffee wood--but there is A LOT!)

The first pile of bricks

The new pile of bricks


The original location of the brick--everyone was working on this!




Working on the coffee wood--cleaning, hauling and stacking!

This was an ongoing game--ALL.DAY.LONG....


Keisha- YOU KNOW YOU LOOKED!!

We are so thankful for the team from Southeastern University--especially for bringing their A-game and mad ninja skills with the water balloons!


Thanks for reading!
