We leisurely walked to the bamboo hut that the boys had built. I was bringing up the back of the pack as we trekked through the brush and a bright color flashed out of the corner of my eye. The boys were running towards us, Super Soakers beaming in the sun. "Girls! Run! The boys are coming, run!" They shamelessly soaked us, as we were unarmed and then ran off through the brush, yelling about their accomplishments. They say they just had to protect their turf. (Lili is to be credited with an action shot of the battle. Thankfully she had my camera, or I think the water would have ruined it.)
The wet girls regrouped in the casita and played while plotting revenge.
Lupita enters the house through the front door.
Yaneli eats membrillo while perched in a tree.
Karla Josie cleans up the place with a stick as her broom. (Maybe the boys should be grateful.) :)
Magda and Karla hoard their membrillo and talk about their most embarrassing moments.
Jaquí thought she could swing from the vines she found. Unfortunately for her, when she hung from they, they both broke.

oh, these girls look fierce!
That is one amazing hut!
Ames,
If your camera would have gotten wet you could have counted on the Geek Squad to have taken care of you. You know they are always there when you need them.
Sorry I'm no Geek

You've really been keeping us updated. No matter where they live, boys will be boys.
Have a great day! Praying for you with your Sunday School lesson.

What the world is "membrillo"?
Cool hut(not exactly "Gilligan's Island", but very cool)!
Membrillo is a type of fruit that grows here. We don't have anything like it in IN and I actually don't know the english word for it. I don't love them, but the kids pick them off the trees and devour them.
According to my internet searching, membrillo is called quince in english and is quite an expensive delicacy at $14.50/lb.
And to think I ate the stuff for free at CVE.
