Saturday!

Work on Victoria's house began on Saturday morning! The group loaded up the trucks. As you can see in one of the pictures below, they even let Dave O'Byrne drive one (scary). The crew was off to move rocks, dig holes for a septic system, dig dirt, and start work on the house for dear Victoria! They have decided to expand the house in order to make a bathroom for her. From what I've heard there will be a bedroom, living area, kitchen, and bathroom.  With the extension, they are not sure that it will get completely finished this week, but they are hoping to get as far as possible! Everyone on the team is putting in lots of work! Below are some pictures from Saturday! They work from the time they get up until about 4:30 in the afternoon.  They said they were exhausted on Saturday after working so hard but felt great to be able to start on the house for this special woman. They all got the opportunity to meet sweet Victoria on Saturday.  On Saturday night, they team went into town with the kids from the orphanage and all went to the ice cream shop to enjoy a cool treat after a long day's work! They're all having a blast! Check out the pictures below!
