Habitat for Humanity

Jamie and I spent some time working with Habitat for Humanity today down in Snellville with another couple from our small group. Our church is sponsoring a build for a lady who is an immigrant from Kosovo, She lost her entire family in the fighting there and was in a coma when she arrived in the US a few years ago (don't ask me to explain that. I'm curious myself. That was all the explanation they gave to us). She and her almost two-year-old daughter will be moving into this house in June or July. We had a good time hanging out with Jesse and Angel and discovered that hard hats are probably not going to become our accessory of choice (I'll post some pictures of that later). We were exhausted when we got home and were in bed by 10:00 Saturday night - we're such party animals! It was a lot of fun, but it definitely left me wondering how I ever survived a week at Reach!

Awww...Tara, you are a nerd! I knew it would come out eventually. You and Shannon just had it hidden behind your athletic pursuits all these years. :-) Daddy and I will enjoy "keeping up" through your blog. WE MISS YOU!!

Jamie looks good in a hard hat, but those shorts belong on a basketball court. I could have used the gal in the hard hat on the ladder this summer.
