Saturday

Saturday was such a fun day - we volunteered with Habitat for Humanity! I got super early - 6am so that I could get Evie ready for camp & pick up sandwiches for our lunch. Amy picked us up at 730am and we drove to the East Bay to our site.

(Doesn't Erik look like a vampire? He is covered in sunscreen)

We worked on two sites - in the morning, we worked outside digging up brick, pulling out cement & poles from the yard, and weedwacking. Erik helped inside the home by laying down lime in the dirt and covering it all with sheets of plastic. He was laying under the floor slabs to get this down!

Amy & I had a lot of fun weed wacking. It was an arm workout for sure!! After lunch, we switched to a different site where we got to d our favorite activity....sheetrocking!! We learned more about how to do this since we had some actual direction from a contractor on site. We got a little punchy around 2pm and were laughing non-stop. That is what makes the work fun!!






The giggles totally took over:


After our job was over, we picked up the dog & immediately got ready to go out (or else we would have fallen asleep).

(Very tired from being at camp since 7am)

We went to Tacolicious for yummy tacos and giant Tecates! A great end to a great day!! We can't wait to do it again. I would love to do Habitat once per month.
