I'm so excited to finally see the actual house being built. It is truly a wonderful thing the group is doing and I suppose once you meet all of the great people there you will wish you could build a house for each and every one. There's always next year. Also for Brian & Mark,.. Dad can't wait for you to return, he has some houses y'all can help him build now that you know how. We miss y'all and bless each and every one of you.

It has been really fun and unique. We've all had such interesting jobs- I got to cut and bend metal to make what looked like chain links (who knows what that was for), we got to see rebar structures being built, we got to use pick axes and see a LOT of dirt getting moved. Mark and a few other people from our team got to learn how to build an adobe brick wall.

And you're right, I want to build a whole house for each of these families. They're just so kind and welcoming.

Dad just saw the pictures and said y'all are doing a good job with the beams, nice straight lines. He was really impressed. Keep up the good work! We saw the picture of Mark shoveling with his Sicilian Festival shirt on but no pictures of Brian working.

I really enjoy reading the stories about this remarkable trip you all are on and I wish you continued success with the build! You are doing a wonderful job and will be a part of the lives of everyone you touch and help for the rest of their lives and the lives of their children. Bless you all and I wish you all safe travels!!
Love,
Natalie
P.S. 'Woof Woof!!' ...That's Brian and Mark's dog Bailey saying "Great job!! Come home safe!" ;)
