Day 1


Our house is a very very very nice house ...
After a delicious breakfast made by our cook, Andrea, we set out for Slidell Avenue where our house is located in St. Tammany Parish within the Slidell city limits. Fortunately, our entire team worked together today, painting ceilings, walls, trim work, finishing three bedrooms and one of the two baths.

The home is owned by a family who suffered water and roof damage from both Hurricanes Katrina and Isaac. The entire home was submerged in 3 inches of flood water.
 
 
Guess who put the tallest guy on the ladder...
Some of the team worked on the hot water heater, moving it's location and placing a drain tray underneath. A new kitchen sink and faucet purchased from Home Depot with our church gift cards, was installed by Pastor Bob and Ron Smedley. Tomorrow they will see if it actually works!!! We sure hope so since some of us spent more time at Home Depot then inside the house today...no further comment needed!

 
 
We are happy we accomplished so much today, and following some pain medication and a great dinner prepared by Andrea, Cajun red beans and rice with homemade cornbread, we are ready to rest our muscles and prepare for more adventure tomorrow!! Good night...
