Tuesday-Day two (morning)

Today was a very productive day.  The pictures you see are just from the morning!  We went to check on the first house (Carlos & Rosas's) and then the truck came to load all the walls for Reina's house so we loaded the walls onto a truck bed and headed to the second house to lift some walls.

Here are the descriptions for the uploaded pictures:
1-3: Getting the walls, doors and windows off the truck bed quickly as the truck had to leave for another job site.  It was a nice incline and we had a challenge to bring in the walls and turn them or leave them flat to carry over the concrete block foundation walls.

4-8: Pictures of the team members quickly doing what needed to be done to get the walls in place and stable.  We all knew different jobs and quickly went to our posts to be there when needed.  It was so amazing!

9: Nills & Gayle planning out our next move...great job with organizing our team members and the Guatemalan workers.

10-11: Hanging out with Reina's family and the neighborhood children.

Reina's family really pitched in the morning and the afternoon!  Her neighbor was there when we were lifting the walls into place because she wanted to see and was excited for her friend.  The Guatemalan workers nicknamed one of our workers Spiderman for his climbing skills.  Although if you watched those men, they were walking across the center beam to get from one end to the other!  Crazy...

Afternoon pictures to follow soon.
