This Saturday, we had our first of several work days at our home in Downingtown.
Here are some pics.

We had an amazing crew. So much work got done.
It was incredible how the Lord brought different people with various skill-sets and built up this effective and cheerful team.
No one was there out of obligation.
Everyone was so excited to be able to help us.
We are so grateful.
Thank you all for helping.
Tim and Jen and Ryan worked all day Saturday and came back again yesterday for more work.
We are blessed beyond words to have them in our lives.
Oh my goodness, Nath! That is amazing. I can’t believe you had so much wonderful help. The kitchen looks awesome already!! Are you guys actually living there yet or finishing out this month at your apt? Where is this townhouse? I’m so curious. I’m happy for you guys!!
K-8,
Yep, we had wonderful help and the kitchen does look amazing already.
We are still in our apartment until November 14th.
The townhouse is in Wedgewood Estates in Downingtown.
Any other questions?
