One Down, Lots More to Go

Another project crossed off the list here at the MacDonald residence... Last weekend our church had a workday in various places in our 'hood and several men showed up here to help rebuild our front porch. It took them a lot longer than they had planned but they got it done! They had originally hoped to repair a fence panel in our backyard that a huge tree branch fell on a while back, but there was no time once the porch was finished.

We still need to sand and stain it but it looks so pretty!! The whole project was such a huge blessing - there is no way Scott could have done it without lots of help and there is no way financially we could have swung the cost of the materials - we didn't have to pay for any of it! Yet another one of God's provisions!

After!!

This is where my mosaic-top bistro set will go (I saw a really great Gator one online - a girl can dream, right?)... A perfect spot to drink coffee in the morning or hang out with the kiddos. A couple of plants will add a nice touch, too! We love being out on the front porch, especially now that the weather is getting cooler.
