Saturday went so well. It started to rain just as we started to set the job site up. Then it quit soon as our first lady builder showed up. We started right away.
We had several new faces now new friends help to build. We did great. The rain started up again, luckily it didn't last log.
Our wall raising ceremony went beautifully. Howards family and Sally's friends joined together to sing their praise. Howard and Sally will sure be missed. This will be the first women build in Tulsa without them. Our thoughts and prayers to their families.
With the break in the weather we raised our first wall, then the next, then the next and finally the last of the exterior walls were secured. Keeping an eye on the weather we finished the day with wet t-shirts, muddy shoes and half the interior walls and lots of smiles and lots of new friends.
This Saturday we have a head start. Tulsa habitat Staff did their Seasonal build day on our house. THANKS! So we will be getting right to Trusses. Hope for sunshine.
So bring out your family and friends and meet us out on the job site.
