Finally Digging!

Yesterday we finally got the opportunity to start digging!  God blessed us with a clear sunny day that helped dry all the dirt so we could safely dig without causing a landslide.  We had to cut away enough soil to lay the footer of the wall which we will be able to do today!  We feel as though we are racing against the clock because we now only have 2 days and a half left to put up the wall and backfill the dirt.  We know, however, that God is in control.
