Ward Foster Home Makeover Project

We participated with our ward and did a home makeover for a family that has fostered over 170 children.  The father was even named foster father of the year last year.  Sadly, he was killed in an accident and left several repairs undone at their home.  Our ward went in and completely made over their home giving the family much needed relief and peace.  It was a pleasure to participate in and fun too.  It was a lot of work though.  McKay served on the makeover committee and he spent many hours at the home the whole weekend working hard.  We all spent time working at the house but McKay spent over 18 hours working at the house each day for two days as well as another half day!

Here is Jeremy, McKay and his friend Kade after sanding drywall all morning.  McKay's hair was looking very grey!

When the family came home, many members of our ward that worked on the house came to welcome them home.  We all drove up and finished helping as well to welcome the family home.  It was fun to see their reaction.

Here is a video of the whole process as well as the reveal.
