Sunday night Jay had arranged for 20 of our friends to help out at the makeover house site. We all arrived by 5:30 ready to do anything. The crowds were unbelievable and that was just the volunteers!! We were told to sit around the volunteer area and wait to be called to help. Jay took off to check on the site and see if he could hook us up with something to do. And disappeared. We sat....and sat..and sat. It was nice to get caught up with some old friends but we were all ready to work. I started helping in the food tent just ot have something to do and before long I was sent to the food tent by the house to check on supplies there..Whoo Hooo, I put on my hard hat and took off to see the house. Most of the others got tired of waiting and were gone by the time I got back. There were just too many people volunteering. If only they waited a little longer because before too long we were pulling people off the street to help. Anyway, the house was moving along quickly and we had a blast just being there.
This is what the house looked like when we arrived at 6- this is just 26 hours after demolition was complete. Amazing!!!
Here I am with Anna and my dad. Anna and I were on the job bringing ice up to the worksite to keep the drinks cold- very important business. We headed home at midnight and I had a few short hours to sllep cause I was back on the schedule for 6am. My goal for Monday was to get into the house!!
