Carson Graham Team has arrived!

So here we are, much anticipated and it is all worth it. Already I can see the euphoric expressions on both our students faces and also the families. I have had the pleasure to meet one of the four families and learn about their humble ways – and to see how content they are with what they have is truly admirable. We were only able to spend fifteen minutes with the family and I believe I speak for everyone when I say we already have a special connection. I can only imagine what the atmosphere is going to be like on day 8 or so!

This is my first time coming to Mexico, and so far I am loving it. The mountains are so beautiful and the weather is amazing! On the bus ride in we passed many horses and cows along the side of the road, and I also made some new friends. Many of the houses that we drove by were painted in very bright colours, and this brought a smile to my face. The bus ride was long and dusty, but very, very entertaining. 🙂

Ever since we first arrived at Vicente Guerrero I noticed that people (myself included), who never talked before started talking and laughing together. When we met up with our families for the first time, it was a very unique and unforgettable experience. I couldn’t help but notice the sense of joy and excitement beaming out of everyone’s smiles!

I am very excited, and grateful to have this opportunity to help change someone’s life with something that we take for granted every day. I am looking forward to building houses for these families, and I am excited to get to know everyone a bit more everyday!
