Yesterday, we had several of the students over to our house to do some work. They are raising funds for their summer mission trip to Palau where they will be doing some work with young people and representing the school at the 80th Palau Gospel Days Celebration. They have been working on weekends since January to raise some of the funds necessary for the trip. Joyce decided that we could help them and us by having them do some of the work we have not been able to get to lately.
So we had them paint our laundry room, water blast the roof of our house (we have to do this periodically to get the black mold off the roof. It makes the house a lot cooler - I already notice the air conditioner does not come on as often) and do a lot of other jobs around the house. They also helped Joyce with some of the things she is working on for her class. You can also get a pretty good view of our neighborhood from the roof of our house.
It wasn't all work. We did manage to watch quite a bit of the opening day of the NCAA basketball tournament and the ladies made chocolate chip cookies. It was a good day. The students did very good work. We got a lot of things done we needed to and money was raised for the students mission trip to Palau. More important we had some good time to hang out and talk with the students.
