Community of Love
So the community of Albert Lea isn't is just great! Everyone is just so caring, helpful and respectful. For the most part I'm talking about the Home Makeover House! I think it is the coolest thing that someone from Small-town USA would bring adventure to Albert Lea by "winning" a house. All the stories on that show are just so touching, and they always make me cry. One of the best parts about this whole experience is the community. Everyone just came together for the Love of the DeVries family. So far I have been out to the house every day except the first day. It is just so amazing on how everything works, and all the people working. It just makes me feel all warm and cozy inside- all the love spreading! I am just so touched by all of this that has been going on in the past week. Everyone that is working must be exhausted working a real job during the day, and then coming in to work at the house from midnight to morning. All of the people are volunteers as well. Not only are there people volunteering, but there are many company's donating tons of people, things and time. The people there cheering the workers on as well, it's just so cool. If you haven't been down to see the house yet you really need to, it's amazing. Congrats Derik and the DeVries Family! I'm looking forward to seeing the final out come of the house! I will try to add some pictures to my blog if anyone is interested. Well I'm gonna go cause my family is watching Toy Story so gotta go watch it with them!! YAY!!
