From Eric Bouw-
Hola Mom and Dad,
It is our second day of working on the house. We were laying bricks and compacting dirt. The masons gave us a lot of responsibility, and I was really surprised. We got a lot of work done, and I'm excited to see what we get done tomorrow.
Adios Amigos!

From Jordan Milne-
Today I injured my arm (old shoulder injury) working and learned not to push an injury.

From Matt Sinan-
Day 2 of the build, we have all had our delicious breakfast, and made our way to the worksite. The great thing about the day was, even though all of us were tired sweaty and some of us sore, we all kept going. One of the things that stood out to me was how a few of us took time to play soccer with the family, and just a few feet away was us building a house for them, there can't be any love greater than that. Even though the sound of sweating and working all day doesn't sound like a thing some people would like to do, I love it! The feeling of helping a family, especially here, definitely feels like an accomplishment.
Chow for now!

From Alex Emmerson-
Well , day 2 of the build turned out to be a great one, we had the pleasure in the morning of mixing mortar, laying bricks and adding finish touches to the mortar. In the afternoon the jobsite started to get a little crowed with all the help from the family and neighbours so we took turns playing games with the kids and interacting with the family. After leaving the buildsite, we went back, ate a good dinner and watched a movie. Cant wait for day 3.
