Thank goodness, it's Friday!

We had another full day of cleaning, cooking and washing at the boys' home. Many of the elementary-aged boys stayed home from school today and were a huge help around the house.

Tonight, Peggy gave the boys their devotional on JOY. She talked about the difference between joy and happiness, and then she gave them all prayer patches that she had knit herself. She told them that no matter what their circumstances, they could find joy in their lives with God, who promises to take care of us through every difficulty. The boys loved their prayer patches and some are still carrying them around this morning!




Ann and Flory got us off to a good start with french toast.



Richie (7 yrs. old)  took the rag out of Becky's hand as she was cleaning
and started wiping down the walls! Great helper!


After all of the cleaning was done, Flory took a break 
with some of the boys and watched a movie on Netflix.


The boys like to do puzzles over the weekend.


Becky and Reddan rewarded their cleaning helpers 
with cokes and chips from a convenience store across the street. 


The team, ready to go out to dinner. 






We ate at a "sidewalk cafe" that doubles as a car wash. I know, it's crazy, but delicious! 



After dinner, we found a street vendor making churros. 
It's like Mexican funnel cake. Yummmmm.
