Our first Adopt-A-Home volunteer event last weekend was a huge success.  All the volunteers had a great time working on Mrs. Trimble’s house, with lots of laughs and some good exercise, too.  Most importantly, we left with a great sense of accomplishment after making Mrs. Trimble’s yard look great!

We took a lot of photos and wanted to share them with you here!

What was in that hole? A chunk of concrete and an old clothes line pole!

We went ahead and filled in that hole with dirt from the tree in the front yard:
