Wed AM

Blog73
I have Written many paragraphs on my computer but have not been able to get that online. It is Wednesday morning here in another beautiful day has dawned. Monday we helped Silas with a few projects around the house here.  Yesterday the women did laundry In large washtubs out in the yard while Ryan and I helped  build a set of gates. The new church building is not going to be completed for several months. The walls are up and it's time to put gates on the fence. Steel trusses have been ordered for the building and are supposed to arrive shortly. Last night Silas's extended family joined us for dinner. We had a buffet set up on the dining room table and then all went into a large sitting room with walls lined with couches. Coffee tables with Beautiful lace covers have been placed in front of each one of the couches and it serves as a great place to have a large group eat together. All of our meals are served in this manner. Last night there were at least twenty of us.  We started asking the children what they want to be when they grew up. Then we all started sharing things that we might want to do and the rest of our lives  Since some of the family has limited English Silas interpreted throughout. We are all doing very well happy healthy and satisfied with our accommodations here. We are meeting new people and new foods and new traditions every day but that is what we expected.
