this week in Pictures

I love the BBC's this week in Pictures, not just because I'm lazy. I like the pictures. So I thought I would do one for our week too.  Its not been much different than most weeks other than I was making a conscious effort to take my camera everywhere! -Laura Tony, some of the other trainees and Robin,  who taught wonderfully on leadership. Thanks Robin! Tony and the Boys building the block factory Tony is teaching the boy's how to weld This is our wonderful Street Team Tony and Edgar throw the kids around Just about to pray together before we leave  The Boys from Hope House are in a Marble phase Out with the Old... I'm not one for change(it will ruin the tan line!)  Bill adores his Phone, so I made Samsung CupCakes for his 18th birthday I think he liked them! C: Sauce anyone? its only £7.03 a bottle I love the shopping centre but hate the prices.

We finally picked up our pickup!  Her name is Mindy and she is a 12 year old Mitsubishi! We are so grateful to all who made this possible and so are the boys who love her already!

Smile for the sugar!

So, exciting things are happening here in Brazil, but we don't always have time to write or photos to show. Soon though I promise. But just for now I wanted to share a little bit of the more mundane or normal stuff that happens in our lives!  Have a wonderful Bank Holiday Weekend for the Brits! These two pics are of todays visit to the supermarket. It took 1hr 10 mins to get through checkout. the queues are insane. People take the chairs that the supermarket are selling and have a little rest, or maybe even a picnic as the family below are doing. I love to bake still and the other day I noticed that this pack of sugar had "sorria Jesus te Ama" on it. (Which, if your not fluent in Portuguese, means: "Smile Jesus loves you") it did make me smile but just because its weird.
