Mud that house!

(written Friday July 16th)

Today we drove to Mark & Sarah’s families house to mud the new house for them. The 2 grade 5 classes came with us and it was a lot of fun! When we arrived the house looked really neat.

The kids walked a long way down to the lake to get water to make mud. It was a bit of a process with people digging and then a bunch of us stomping on the mud to make it smooth. Once the mud was ready we started to fill in the walls. It’s an interesting process of stuffing mud down and then throwing it at the walls. Everyone was a pretty muddy mess by the time we were finished but we sure did have a lot of fun. The kids in the Grade 5 class were amazing and worked so hard. There was such a sense of community while we worked.
