The Saga Continues...

I would like to take a moment and point out to everyone that Kevin and I know NOTHING about home renovations/repair, we would have been lost without amazing friends that know exactly what they are doing and who were totally willing to give up their holiday weekend to work at our house. We will be forever in their debt. 

So, we were all up and working early this morning. Some of these pictures are from last night after Kev got everything cleaned up for the night. 

I love these pictures because they help to remind me how blessed we were over the course of the weekend. We were blessed in so many ways we cannot really even begin to scratch the surface. Sherri and Toni and their children worked tirelessly all weekend long, Robin and Jim were more helpful than we could even begin to explain and Robin brought us over dinner in the middle of the mess which was amazing! We also had Chelsea come and get our children and take them away so they could get out of the house and have fun and not be exposed to all of the nasty we were tossing into the air the entire day. 

In the middle of this mess we realized our vacuum was not working and two friends brought over vacuums for us, one dear friend left a brand new vacuum on our door step today. We have been touched more than words can adequately express today. I should also mention the new vacuum was a two-fold blessing because our eldest son now is obsessed with vacuuming the house. Awesome!!!! We had other friends over the course of the week take the children, bring more food, allow us to shower and bathe after each disgusting and messy day, we could go on forever. 

We only made a small amount of progress today, but the new floor was so awesome that I can't even say how awesome it is. I am glad for two reasons, we no longer have nasty mold in the house, and we no longer have a huge hole in the floor that goes clear into the basement. I felt that was an accident just waiting to happen with Bug around. 

Tony got a lot of work done today, and he started the plumbing. Again Kev and I are humbled because this is something that we have absolutely zero skill-set for. 

Extremely humbled and very thankful today, it was a hard frustrating day, but the blessings are truly pouring in.
