We were SWEATY!
For the first time all together as an office, we spent a day working on the Habitat for Humanity house on Penn Ave. in Portland which will be sold to Mahdi Abdullah, his wife and eight kids. They are the cutest family, and were helping us out all morning.
The Abdullahs have been volunteering for Habitat for five and a half years (almost 3 times the average upfront commitment for a Habitat family), and are finally first in line for a house.
We had a great time, and despite the heat the day really flew by! Pictures are below (biggest mistake of the day: not taking the group photo BEFORE we started sweating):
