My Fort

On the beach I was playing and I made a fort out of scraps. Such as logs, branches, vines and a lot of other things. I even made a roof over it Jayden helped me make it too. When we were done we ate lunch and it was an umbrella from the sun. Below is a picture of it when we were finished.

My First Crab

Normally you would want to catch a fish but at this river me and my dad went to there were a bunch of crabs. I think it's because we were right next to the beach but still there were a bunch. My dad caught one cat fish and, well, I caught a crab. Here are some pictures of it:

Cascavel

A week ago I went to Cascavel which is a little town called rattle snake in English. An American team was there and they invited us. Me and my dad went there for construction we built a building for a church in one week!! I loved to work on the scaffolds because you were really high in the air. I was able to go because I got my school in front of the date so I wouldn't be behind. Below are some photos.

My new friend Ronnie

This is the building without the roof on it.

This is me putting putty on the wall.

These blocks were heavy but I could lift them.

This a picture of the church gathered to worship.


This how many people didn't fit in the building.

Atibaia

Today I am feeling happy because I have 7 days until we go to mission meeting. We will fly to a city in the state of Sao Paulo called Atibaia. Every missionary that lives in Brazil will be there. Most of them are my best friends. Well lets get to the fun stuff. There will be a hot tub, Swimming pool, mini golf coarse, a park, a soccer field that is very big and a whole lot of fun to go with it. :-]

There is a team coming down from Florida. They are coming down just to hang out with us and do a Bible School with all the missionary kids. They are really nice to do this. Our classes each day will be about 5 hours. After our class we will be allowed to walk around with our friends and hang out while all our parents are in meetings!!! So I can't wait until Mission Meeting [1 week].

:]

Basketball

I just played basketball! My coach is really good and I will be playing with 10, 11, 12 and 13 year olds. I was going to do soccer but I figured basketball is rare in Brazil. Then I went to play and really really liked it. I will be playing Tuesdays and Thursdays. The coach said, at the beginning, that I needed to wear a white and a colored shirt. Mom said it is crazy. So I am going to bring a colored shirt and if I am on the white team I will take my shirt off because I have really white skin.

Well, sorry I haven't blogged in a while.

My New Apartment

Today we were thinking about getting a dog but my dad said we had to wait until we get to Fortaleza because we would have to buy a plane ticket for it. We would have to check if the apartment we have allows dogs. By the way when we walk in our new apartment we will walk through the balcony. Our balcony is big enough to play a full a game of soccer! P.S. my mom just said that is not gonna happen but I think it is big enough. Two blocks away from our house is a restaurant called pizza and tacos.
That is great because my family loves mexican food!
