Happy 4th

My favorite thing about the 4th is watching the fireworks and this will be the first year I don't get to see that. No worries though. Today has still been great. We did speed orientation and camp planning so that we could pack up and spend the afternoon at the beach. We had a great time. The weather was so nice and the water was just the perfect temperature. Odalis, Manuel, Marcos, and their friend showed up and entertained us for a while. We had more handstand contests and random water games. Right before we left my friend from the Batey showed up and so we caught up for a bit. We got to ride in the truck which is always so fun. It's almost like being in a parade. People are always yelling at us and waving. Tonight we have dinner, church, and then a Bible Study after. Dinner is supposed to be somewhat Americanized for the 4th. It's a surprise though. Everyone is guessing hamburgers and hotdogs but I doubt that. Maybe. After we get back from church, Steph and I have started a small group for anyone that wants to participate. I think tonight there will be around 5-7 of us. We are going to go through Isaiah. It will be nice to form that community again.
Well more later. We are super excited for camp on the road this week so pray that that goes well and also pray for rest. It's fun but very exhausting.
