It sure has been a while since I have updated this! I am about two months into my deployment and it sure has gone by fast. I stay very busy so it works out. Here are a few pics to let you all know what I have been up to.
This is a picture of me on a job site I went out to with the US Army. The building next to it was leveled by an IED a few weeks before to try to scare away our contractors but it didn't work! These guys are awesome! It started raining while I was there, really heavy. Unfortunately they were mixing/pouring concrete at the time and these guys don't use the type of stuff like the picture below! Luckily they tarped it over pretty quickly and the pour was alright.
Here is the Iraqi pizza/coffee place that we do a lot of going away and birthday parties at. This was a going away party for a couple guys last week. The mocha mellow latte is very yummy in case you are ever in the neighborhood!
This was a different going away party with a live Filipino band. They were pretty good. Did mostly American songs and I got to dance all night! I also got to teach a bunch of Iraqi's (our dining hall workers) the moves to Y.M.C.A! They had no idea why they were doing the arm movements but they followed me anyway!
Richard sent me a Lego Concrete Mixer so we decided to put it together today. It looks pretty awesome and we are thinking of getting the whole Lego land so keep that in mind for Christmas! I guess that wraps up most of the important stuff. Still working long hours and singing in the choir for church. I have a solo this Sunday so I will let you know how that goes. I am nervous!
Keep sending me emails! I love hearing from you all! I need to stay current with all the juicy gossip so I am not lost when I get back!
Hope everyone is doing well! God bless!
Love, Me
