Bonjour,

We had a busy morning with Bible Clubs.  The kids and I walked down the hill to the field for the Bible Club in the yard.  We had over sixty today.  It was rather wild; I didn't get a count because they weren't still long enough.  Joe and Dan only had people show up at one of the fields today.  They made some visits after Bible Club.
Joe worked on trying to fix the toilets this afternoon.  He got one working.  The other one needs some additional parts.  
We did get some rain last night.  So, we have some water in our holding tank.  Praise the Lord!  Last night, I told the kids that we needed to pray for rain.  The boys both prayed that it would rain.  When it was Bonnie's turn to pray, she started crying because she didn't want it to rain.  That silly girl!
I spent most of the day in the kitchen doing dishes and getting things situated.  The kids were on the hunt for certain toys; a lot of things are still in boxes.  We will get it all unpacked eventually.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
