Baja Pictures #2

A few things about our trip: 
1. It was FREEZING. We went to bed shivering, said breath-cold goodnight's, and had cold showers the whole time.
2. People got really sick. Every day. Missionaries were puking all over themselves and people next to them, which caused a domino effect of people puking. It was rough.
3. It was exhausting. We were lucky to get 5 hours of sleep each night. SO exhausting.
4. BUT- it was worth it. Even if I knew everything about the trip that I know now, I would still go because God really did amazing things. 

Here's some of the highlight pictures:

The scenery there was gorgeous!
The symbol of a cross at the beginning of the house build. Off to a good start!
The structure going up...
Part of the team working hard

Lots of help from the local kids. They were pretty cute.

Jake was a VERY good worker. :)

This little guy was so stinkin cute. 

Edgar was mostly hilarious because of that tooth!

Probably my favorite picture of the whole trip. Jake gets the credit for this one.


Rough picture #1
Just a random dead cat in a bag. Tijuana, Mexico is not for the weak. 

Playing pato, pato, gonzo- duck, duck, goose

Edgar loved Jake. 
Rough picture #2. Plus, you know someone is too old to ride piggy back when you can smell their B.O. 
The whole team just after we handed over the keys to the new owners. 

Jake and my love shack. We slept in a warehouse that was freezing and so dusty, but at least we got to peek out at each other from inside our mummy sleeping bags before we went to bed.
Jake and I enjoying a rare moment of free time at the beach.

And that was the trip. :)
