We started our build today!!!! Very exciting. We didn't get quite as far as we would have liked but we did almost complete the front wall and have a great start on the inside walls and the back wall. Our crew is working great.....we are TIRED after hefting blocks all day, but it is worth it all as we get to know "our family." Two parents, three children, 21, 17 and not quite sure, but they do currently live on a boat in the river. We have added pictures in the previous post; so, take a look. We will put more pictures in there tomorrow morning when our internet connection works more quickly; so, check back......All are well and in good spirits, tired, but rewarded. Be sure to "double click" on the pictures which will fill the screen, then "hit" the BACK button to go back to the blog and next picture.....
Remember, we will post more pictures in the previous post.....
THANKS for all of your support......
HOUSES #13 & 14: Jerry Marlatt, house leader, Roger Hoffman, Tom and Jan Paxson, Alice and Randall Heckman, Judy Drown, Ken Mumm; Michael Smith, Rodger & Kay Payne, Rita Wright

Good to hear that your work day went well. I am enjoying your pictures. The best to all of you.
ReplyDeleteHi Everyone! We really enjoy watching your progress via the blog! Great Job! Tell Mike Smith that all of us here at Ward Laboratories are very proud of him! Also, don't worry a bit about your office. It is being taken care of very well!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see everything is going well for you. I wonder how my Dad held up with his bags missing? Tell Randy and Alice we (Jen and Ben) are thinking of them and can't wait to hear about their adventures! Thanks for sending the pictures.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to hear from you and makes me feel more connected. Wishing you continued safety and our prayers are with you. From Edith
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see the picture's and read about the progress you are making! I'm surprised to see you all wearing sweatshirts, for some reason I thought it would be hot there! Snow and freezing drizzle in Nebraska! I will continue to keep you all in my prayers! Lot's of love to Mom and Dad (Tom and Jan Paxson)!

Mom and Dad (Kay and Rodger), Ben wants to know if you're eating lots of delicious food! :-) The build looks great and it sounds like you're having a wonderful time! Go team Kearney!
ReplyDeleteMe too on the sweatshirts and warm clothes. Sounds like you are making great progress. So cool that you have met "the Habitat man" -- President Carter -- of course, you are all "VIP Habitat People" and I continue to be amazed with your work and the photos. Saw Bonnnie last night -- she is doing well and behaving :) Trish
ReplyDeleteHave loved the pictures and following your progress. Hope to see more about the dedication. Weather is great here - cold in the morning and warming to 55 by noon! Enjoy the rest of your "adventure." We look forward to "hearing" the details.
ReplyDeleteLove to you all.
