2X4 Time

Brought out that teamwork today! Nice! Breaking up into 7 groups of people, we turned a pile of 2X4's into walls with windows and doors! One of the definite highlights of the day is that we got to know the family better as they were with us watching their house go up. Edgar the son, and a few of his friends were around showing us some of their biking skills and raced for us. The father we got to know especially as he chipped in and not only helped with sawing, hammering, and putting together, but even gave some of us a few new construction tips. The mother's birthday was today, so when we had all the walls put up and nailed in we sang Happy Birthday for her in her new house. Pretty sure we left a big smile on her face as we pulled out after today's work.
