Yesterday was wild. We begain working on the house at 8:30am and arrived at the hotel last night at 2:30am. Everyone had specific areas they were working in and each of us would not give up until it was completed. The kitchen now contains a new stove, cabinets, counters, pantry, flooring and dishes. The back porch has a brand new sink and tiled counter area for drying shoes. The down stairs living area is painted, wood floored, and baseboarded with lighting fixtures. There are 5 bathrooms, with all new fixtures, mirrors, hot running water (in most bathrooms),including glass block skylites. The 6 bedrooms are beautiful. All painted in bright colors with new beds, mattresses, sheets, comforters, and some wall art. All hallways and bedrooms have new flooring. It is amazing.
I would love to tell you that we are finished, but we aren't. Please pray for us. Still more flooring is needed, some beds need to be put together, some areas of the house need reorganizing, and we need to finish a counter top in the library on the third floor. All of our work must be completed by the time the princesses arrive around 6:00pm
We are heading to the Lima campus this morning. Everyone is excited to see it and meet the other members of Flamingo Road.
God Bless

Sharon, So excited to know that you will reveal it to the girls and Carmen tonight at 6pm. I remember the day this past summer that Amber walked in one of the girls rooms and was so overwhelmed with the conditions, but yet still saw how greatful they were to show her their room. I know tonight the girls will not be able to breathe or even contain theirselves...Amber and I sit here with so much of the same excitement for them and all of U!! Give my love to Gar, Jen, Jeanette, Espy, Vicki, Mel and everyone! Can't wait to see the videos! Love ya, Holly
