Hey Everyone!
Izzie and Caroline here. We are currently on the worksite at Muleshoe Estates, the trailer park we have been at all week. The main jobs we've been assigned consist of priming and painting Sarah's trailer, initially cleaning the outside with bleach. Sarah is such a great hostess. She is not only constantly telling us how thankful she is, but she provides us with water and iced tea to quench our continusous thirst because the temperature is insanely hot and the sun is trying to give us all skin cancer. Between reapplication of sunscreen and working our tails off we have fun playing with the girls whos families were helping and the most adorable, precious little dog ever named Daisy. Lunch is always the same, made every morning before breakfast. Ehh...breakfast is OK. We wont dwell on the lack and quality of the food were forced to eat, but we'll survive. Trips to Walmart Superstore let us stock up on edible items. After working we usually go either shopping or out to ice cream, and then return to the "resort" and go swimming in the indoor pool with the hot tub and then its off to dinner. Dinner isnt bad, we've had the usual, hambergurs, hotdogs, pizza, pasta, though last night they "forgot" to make us dinner and we were forced to sit in our starvation for 3 more hours than necessary. We werent happy. After dinner is a little bit more hang out time before we hed off to chapel...which in our opinion is pretty rockin. The first day was a bit awkward and tiring, however, once we started participating and expressing extreme enthusiasm we now find it as a major highlight in our day. Curfew is 10:30, and we literally must be in our rooms or the Christian police (Team effort couselors) herd us back to our condos. Today is the last of work, as tomorrow we will spend our day at the waterpark, and Saturday a 9HOUR ride home. But overall this is an incredible experience and we're both having a lot of fun. See you all in 2 days!
Caroline and Izzie
