The car ride there was FANTASTIC! I loved it so much!

The first night, we stayed at Selma RP church. We played "I've Never" and it was tons of fun till we got into really personal stuff and sorta wore the game out for a while. Also, David and Luke bought these shot glasses and 2-liters of Sprite remix and had a little "drinking contest"(I hope this is ok to put on my blog...) Anyways, they both got to THIRTY glasses! Afterwards David puked in the toilet for a while. Now THERE are some great pictures! (I can't wait to publish them on my blog!!!!)

Monday morning, we had to get up at 3 AM to leave. We got to ECHO at about...hmm....maybe 4ish? And most of the s braided eachothers hair in little tiny braids. We sang really silly songs and played great car games such as, the ABC game and 20 Questions.

The first day of work was OK, but pretty hot and hard. In the morning I did weeding which was horrible! But the afternoon(workin' with Keith for the first time! LOL!) was not that hard, just really, really hot! That night we went to Wal-Mart and Luke and Elijah bought these halarious, dorky hats called "Shade Shacks". And we also played round-robin that night. Well...I attempted! :)
We went to the beach on Wednesday and it was really fun! But David and Luke swam under the water and scared me to dea/th!!!

Thursday we went to the Shell Factory in the evening. It was a really cool store. When we got home we played round-robin again. We had three lives and I got out each time by Luke! Then I was sitting on the edge of the couch watching them finish the game when Stephen slammed the ball, Luke swung his paddle backwards and smacked me hard in the face! First I fell back on the couch laughing. Then people started telling me my mouth was bleeding. So I went to the bathroom with a lovely busted lip. But it's all healed now and I guess I forgive Luke. lol jk. :)

On Friday we got ice cream!!!!!! I was sooo excited cuz I had been asking for it the entire trip! We also did square dancing. That was...interesting! ;)
Saturday we had to work for a couple hours. We did mulching and it was soo hot! Plus everyone was tired and grumpy. But we did get a lot done, which was good. After working, we went to the mall. Our first meal out! I had Chinese and it was soo good but I ate barely any of it! Later that evening we went to the beach and played keep away/football gi/rls against guys. Cindy sliced her toe really badly, and several people cut and scraped their feet.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! SUNDAY WAS HALARIOUS!!!! In the morning this missionary guy came and preached...which was interesting. Also we sang for the whole church. They had a fellowship meal for us and Cindy, Grace, Julie, and I all sat at a table with this HALARIOUS old guy named Herb. Poor guy had some problems. But he was sooo funny! The guy in the evening was extremely mixed up and like had no point! When we were about to sing a hymn about giving your life to Jesus etc...the guy said, "I dare you not to stand up if this is not what you want for your life!" We all looked at each other like, "woooaaahhh! Should we get up???" We all did get up, but hardly anyone sang. It was soo weird.

Sorry this is so extremely long. I'm not even done yet, but I need to be done for today!
