Just another polvoriento day in Mexico... or is it?

When the face is pale, lift the tail.
When the face is red, lift the red.
When the face is blue, air is due.
When the face is green, leave the scene.
Vickie shared this today, but we'll talk about it later.

Today was an eventful day, very fun but stressful. Our morning started out with a dead van battery. Then we jump started the van and went to our last VBS in Chato. The kids loved the games and crafts. This boy, Fernando made Tatiana and I play fútbol (soccer). It was fun, but we weren't very good. Tatiana blocked a couple goals though.

The day wore on and we went to a fish fry hosted by Luna, which everyone loved. Then came a dust storm. Dust was everywhere, including our teeth, lips, hair and skin. Next we had our very last VBS at the church which also meant our last drama. The one day we didn't practice our dramas, and lets just say that we should have... Once again the games and crafts were a hit. After VBS we had nachos and handed out school supplies to the children. They loved them.

Cady and I were playing fútbol (soccer) again when it happened. An ambulance showed up. Rosalia, a lady from the church, fainted and had to go to the hospital. That of course ended our party and we all went home to pray. When we got back to the hotel our team gathered and prayed for her then we sang until we had to go to our rooms.

Although this day may have been stressful and crazy, we all had fun. In the end everything turned out okay. Which goes to show you all things great can happen through God.
