They have a bathroom now! :)

The family that I built the flushing toilet for, had at least 8 kids there at a time.  They were really excited about this new addition.  I gave them all American names, and they named me Susana (you can see where I signed the wall right behind the kids).  They couldn't say the 'r' ending to Summer, so Susana, in their awesome accents, was much easier.  They also called me Susan quite a bit.

 As you can see in these pictures, their house was maroon, so they picked this hunter green color for their bathroom (which is just a small room on the side with a toilet).

 I still have green paint on my legs from it.  ;)

Lovin' life!

 I loved everyone in Fiji!  Our 

ward was fantastic.

 I have been able to stay in contact with a lot of the Fijians through Facebook.  :)

 I feel as though I made friends for life!

 What's even better than that!?!  We got to go to the temple and do baptisms there. It's my favorite temple!

 Another thing I fell in love with there?  The brooms!!!  I stole this off the maids cart for a quick picture.  I wish I could have brought one home with me!

I'm missing these sweet faces more and more, everyday!

Round 2 of pictures

 Under the awning, we are digging and placing the septic tank.  Next to the house, you can see where we are placing the bathroom 

(just a flushing toilet).

 This was my family in Fiji.  I got to enjoy tea time with them twice a day.  They were the BEST and I miss them terribly!

 Paradise!

We always felt safe with this guy around!

My camera and all it's pictures...Part 1

I didn't get to do much of this...

but I did get to do a lot of this.  I love the kids there!

They taught me some really fun games.  Now I've been teaching them to my family.  It was a little bit of Fiji I could share with Ty and Sydney.

That's my mom on the right.

Farewell Feast

Today was our final feast and we had to say goodbye to our Fijian 'families'. 

They presented us with these beautiful traditional Fijian dresses. 

Our group has been so wonderful. I love these people!

The only hard part of this entire trip was saying goodbye to all these adorable kids. They are in my heart forever!!!

Another amazing experience!

We got to go to the Suva Fiji Temple!

Bites and all

The bed bugs, the sweat, and the cement legs are all worth it when I see these smiling faces every day!!!!
