a well needed update

The past few days have been pretty fun here at the home. So, i'll give you a short overview with some highlights!

I don't really remember the days we did this, heck, i don't even really know what today is... thursday? let me check my computer. Nope. It's wednesday. Just goes to prove my above point.
ANNNYYYWAYS....
Monday(i think) we painted at 6am due to the heat. We did a good chunk and then stopped for the day. The girls wanted to do crafts again, so we did. they are just loving the craft time. We watched a mary-kate and ashley video--boo ya. volcanoes! In the evening Jody and i organized a beauty night. we straightened most of the girls hair.. and believe me some of them have reeeally curly hair. I did the girls make-up. The younger girls were so excited! We painted nails and were just girlie. we took tons of photos and even danced a little. Patma taught me some sweet moves. She totally schooled me in the dancing department, but was kind and told me i did good. it was realllllly fun though. all the girls were laughing. i showed her a few of my moves as well. haha. we have a short video. ha. it was just a great night. especially after such a bitter day the previous day.

Tuesday- Jody and i finished painting coat number one of the dorm! boo ya!! We took a few girls to the market in the afternoon. we bought some needed fruits and veggies and more cookies for me. yay! the evening we learnt to play an indian game. it was really fun. i was horrible, but that is not the point! haha.

wednesday (today)- Jody and i made the girls exercise plan for the school year. as well planned some activities for next week. we are holding a treasure hunt all week. at the end we are having a sundae party! it will also be jody's last weekend here :( so, ya. i am sad about that.
the big news of the day.. (drum roll please)
I MADE MY FIRST CHAPATI! jody and i found some peanut butter so i wanted to put it on chipati. we havent had ti the last few meals so we decided to make some. it was probably teh most sketch thing but it turned out reaalllly good. we made the dough and then, since they dont ahve pans here really cooked them over an open flamed gas stove. haha. we were screaming a bit and just having a wild time. after, i put cookie crumbs on it too.. yum.

this evening it rained really hardcore. it was actually so nice. yay cool air. there is still some evening ahead.. you never know what will happen!
thanks for the prayers.
