How Do I Do this?

Our team of six went to a home today and worked on flooring, trimming, doors, and so much more. We learned many new skills with new tools. We learned how to continue working through frustration. Everyone did an amazing job adapting and being willing to learn!

Knee Pads = Our Best Friends

We came back to this home that we started 2 days ago. Here we are continuing to finish up flooring. This means measuring, cutting, laying it, and pounding it in. This worksite sure does have a lot of noise with it!
