They're the Memories I'll Always Keep With Me

     Even though it's Sunday and today is usually the day for my five items of thankfulness, I'm going to do something a little different.  I finally got off my lazy bum and posted all of the pictures that I took for City Project on Facebook (I had only posted Wednesday dinner until this afternoon).  I think it's highly unfair for me to keep the final two days from you and not share them until Monday.   So my Five Things post is getting moved to tomorrow and you're finally going to see Friday's work night and Saturday's dinner photos.  You're welcome.

But You Say That's Exactly How This Grace Thing Works

     I have finally finished editing all of the pictures from City Project this week.  Thursday and Friday I spent my time at the O'Kelly's house.  They are members of our church.  Mrs. O'Kelly has spent the past 7 or 8 years battling breast cancer and never really got the chance to finish the last minute details on her house.  So during this week, the ladies of our church have been painting and organizing and fluffing their house to really make it a peaceful place for Mrs. O'Kelly (and the rest of her family).  
     Thursday I went out about the same time I did on Wednesday (during the middle of the day) just to document what was going on during this project (and also to lend a helping hand painting).  Then on Friday evening instead of going to dinner, ladies from the church (and a few men) who worked during the day but still wanted to help came over to finish up with last minute details.  I didn't stay the whole time, but they wanted to get everything done so they didn't end up leaving until way into the night.  Saturday I just went to the final dinner.  All in all, the church volunteers completely finished with two of the four houses, but that was what they had planned going into the week.  (The men finished roofing and the O'Kelly's house was finished.)
     But I think I'm going to draw out the whole thing just a little bit longer.  I have so many pictures to post, I don't want to overwhelm you.  So I'm just going to post Thursday's pictures tonight.
