Last Day At La Panamá

     Wednesday was spent doing lesson two with the kids. We got to two buildings before recess started. There were so many kids, but we had a blast playing with them. There is a group of girls who drag Taylor and I around everywhere and are always the first ones to find us. We absolutely adore them:) After recess we did the lesson for two more buildings. There are five buildings and about four or five classrooms for each building. The oldest kids are on one side of the schoo and the preschoolers are in the last building on the other side. 
     We can back to the mission house for a quick lunch before going back to the school to work. Taylor and I were completely exhausted from lack of sleep so while she stayed at the mission house I went to the market with Kegan and Miriam. The three of us came back to the mission house to get Taylor. They dropped us of at our house around three and the two of us crashed until almost 6:30. We got to eat dinner with the girls and took our nightly walk. I have definitely missed hanging out with them, but working with the team is fun too. 
     Thursday was the last day for the team to be at the school. We did lesson three and got to take the preschoolers behind their building to play on the new playground the team put up on Wednesday. There was a slide, swings, and a see-saw. They loved it and had so much fun playing. Now they have their own place to play without all the big kids. 
     We came back to the house again for lunch and then went back to the school. While the guys worked on getting the desks and computers put together the girls set up something special for the women teachers. Diana is a hairstylist and cut their hair. Me, Taylor, and a couple other girls from the team gave them manicures and pedicures. They looked great afterwards and had fun being pampered:) 
     Taylor and I left early to go to the store again with Kegan and Miriam. Before we left we heard some girls yelling through the gate of the school. It ended up being some of our friends wanting to say hi. We got to talk to them for a few minutes and told them we would be back on Monday. I couldn't imagine leaving them after four days and am grateful we get another week. 
     The rest of the day was pretty unevenful. We ate dinner and two little girls, Lisbet and Celeste, from the school got to come back with us. They even got to spend the night at the mission house and are going to the beach with us this morning. :) 
Adios for now!
