Work Day #16: “Interior Painting Kickoff”

Well, the interior painting is officially under way! Today was our rescheduled “Women’s Build” day, so many women came out to get us started on the right track. Thanks to everyone who came out today to help! There were lots of smiling faces on site - check out the pictures from today below.

We like happy workers!

A happy future homeowner.

Many thanks to the folks that provided and delivered the food today!

Hmmm, these workers today somehow seem easier to get along with and better at following instructions.

Happy painters...

Happy, happy painters...

Getting it done.

Even happy on a ladder!
