Feliz Cumpleanous

Yesterday we had a huge birthday part for all the kids who had birthdays in July. Pastor Audens brother is in town and some people from his work gave him $100 bucks to do something for the kids. So he decided to sponsor the birthday party. There were 2 big cakes, a pinata, gifts, and prizes. We played a couple different games. One was wrap the other person in toilet paper to make a mummy out of them, another was the cram your mouth full of food and see who can finish their plate first game. We also did a race where they had to balance an egg on a spoon, and all sorts of other little party games like that.

Here is a picture with all 40 kids

Here is the eating game. The twins Lenny and Jonell are feeding Yhonson and Gerson

Above is a quick video I threw together of the mummy game.

These next couple days we all kind of have our own missions. The girl volunteers, Rita, Aimee and Karen are out to rid the orphanage of lice, we've had bigger out break and it was starting to get out of control. I will be assisting them. However, my main mission today and these next couple days is to take care of our (my) dog Sparky. He must have a bad infection of worms because he has gotten really skinny and does not have much of an appetite. Also he is itching really bad all over. So I went and picked up some parasite medicine for him today and gave it to him, I also gave him a flee bath and a topical treatment for flees and bugs. Cherry also called her son who is a veternarian. He said because he has a lot of open sores an thinning skin that he has a bacterial infection from being in the dirt so often also the fact that he had worms and is loosing weight isn't helping his body fight off the infection. So tomorrow or later tonight I'm going to go pick up some antibiotics that he recommended. In the mean time we aren't suppose to chain him up in the dirt during the day. So he's living in my house at the moment.
