"The team is having lunch on the new floor"


Hello Everyone. Well the VA team has almost gotten everything done in Marguerite's house. As you can see by the first pictures from yesterday they have some floors done and working on the rest. They had the bathtub put it and was tiling around it. The shower was put in and they were working on the pipes. One of the ladies on the step was working on the pipe fixtures and was running a little wire brush through every little piece of pipe before it could be used. It was a long and tedious job but she did not mind and kept at it for as long as she needed to. You can see the ladies on their knees putting down a tile floor. That is hard work but it paid off and they got the floor finished today. It looks so beautiful! Some of the other ladies put down the laminate wood floor and got all three rooms done in 2 days. They worked so hard. Marguerite was smiling from ear to ear every time I saw her.

The guys had the tub and show in yesterday and today was putting tile around it and starting on the floor. I will have finished pictures for you tomorrow. The team said that she can move back into her house by tomorrow. I don't' know who is more excited us and the team or Marguerite, I am sure it is Marguerite because of everything she has went through. The team has accomplished so much in their time here and should be very proud of themselves. We are very thankful that they came and gave their time to be here. Tomorrow I will have final pictures of everything and hopefully some of Marguerite moving back into her house. Please keep praying for her and the team.

I seem to always get a little sad when teams leave because they have done so much for the people here. They also touch our lives while they are here and we enjoy having them so much.

Thank you all for praying for our son Alex. I spoke with him this evening and he said is feeling much butter. He said for 2 days he felt like his through was on fire and couldn't swallow and was running a fever but then this morning it was gone. He feels fine and is going to classes. Praise be to God! We love you all.

Until tomorrow...Lots of Love from .. Allen and Dovie
