I'm home :). Florida definitely had its ups and downs. During the week there were definite times when I just wanted to give up. I do not know how Andy does it week after week! I love the kids and it was heartbreaking to hear their stories. Some of them I have heard before but throughout the week I was able to learn more and I just can't even imagine going through what some of them have gone through. Anyway we arrived in Florida on Saturday. Our houses were incredible! The girls house and 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths upstairs with a bedroom and one full and one half bath downstairs. And there was a pool and hot tub right outside the backdoor :) Sunday we rested and went to the opening ceremony which was pretty good. Monday we started working :) we had to leave our houses at 7:15 which made for an early morning! The first and second day our group split up. Half painted a house while the other half went a picked up trash at a local park. The second day half worked on a roof while the other half picked up brush at the park. And we also got to help pull down a tree which was fun :). The rest of the week we worked at a womens house cleaning up the yard and we even finished early :)
Saturday we went to Cocoa Beach and to Downtown Disney. It was a lot of fun however I was exhausted afterwards. Sunday and Monday we drove home and here I am :) Still a little tired but recovering! I am definitely excited for fireworks though :)
