Wonderful blessing came from someone earlier this year.
My own personal family was blessed with a donation to build a more private quarters for ourselves.
Sadness to many teams that we have chose the third floor to do this.
The third floor was a place for pray to many team members, a place to nap some even preferred to sleep there during their stay with.
How ever it was cheapest for us to enclose the roof and create our home there rather than moving off property. We didn’t have to buy a roof, lay a foundation, run electricity, or water; plus now we get to enjoy the third floor ourselves; daily
Well it’s complete and it looks good, if I say so. Also the goal has been accomplished, we have some peace and time to be separate and time for our own family.
Our current guest confirmed the wonderfulness of our gift; she was upstairs with us for a week while we made repairs downstairs. But after a week of finally being down stairs she said she doesn’t understand how we lived down stairs for so long.
Ream also confirmed her rest. She told me last week how she feels like she is finally home and she doesn’t feel like escaping all the time now.
We also we were able to repaint the outside and make some general repairs.
If you saw the last front photo with the Hawaii team you can easily tell how badly we need a paint job.
Inside our house most of it is open so I will show the photos pretty much in a 360.
I’m not going to show our bed rooms as they are pretty much empty and messy right now.
I will also avoid bragging about the prices we got during construction on the house because I don’t want to make anyone jealous 😉 . I can only say that the funds were well spent and most of the products are 1/4 of the cost in the USA. I really realized this when I tried to compare Cabinet prices online to see if we were getting a good deal or not.
Kitchen

Dinning area and living room.
Living area
front door with bed rooms in the back ground off to the right and left.
Sam and Joe have their own rooms and separate bath.
On the left side we have our room, our bath, the office and a room for a baby girl hopefully.
Hallways look nice. The glass blocks let a lot of light through the house and into the entrance.
We also use drywall on the interiors with concerns to weight loads to the building.
Our fantastic bathroom we have two sinks and wonderful amounts of space. The local worker said our bath room is bigger than his house.
Out back custom door, custom price (Cheap).
We also kept a patio I still need to hang a hammock.
We don’t have our patio furniture yet but the plan will be to have a pass through and eat some meals outside.
Also have our laundry nook on the patio, so we don’t have to go down stairs to do it.
Pulley to get supplies up easy and quickly
Still have a balcony. We also have two sliding doors to the balcony one from our room.
Lastly we, added driveway, laundry roof and second bath room to the team house.
The driveway kind of replaced the roof for the kids. We have been playing a lot of line tag out there.
We are so very thankful for what we’ve been given by some one or some people we are sure we even know. I can’t wait to share our gift with our friends and family from home.
Thank you for the love shown to us.
