Thanks Tim, Sarai, and Alex

Like I always say, “Once a jit, always a jit.”

Well, my family recently moved into a house in the Linda Miller Community. Thanks to Michael Miller, we were able to renovate the first home that was ever built for the community. When we arrived it was in messed up shape. I mean really bad. The old tenants took everything out. I didn’t realize the cost of renovating even a small home like this would be so high. I didn’t mind using our credit card because I could use the monthly rent I used to pay to pay it off the bill in a few months. The only problem is that most of Honduras is cash only including labor. So we needed a lot of upfront cash to fix up the place. We did all the really necessary stuff right away – toilet, stove, running water, electricity, etc. Other things Elise wanted we would have to wait on like kitchen cabinets, xbox video games, grass for the yard, and decorative items. Well somehow my jit of the game sister, and Brother in law Tim found out and gave us a gift for the kitchen. We were able to buy the kitchen cabinets after all.

Seriously, we are so thankful. Thank you so much Jacobsen family. Just Kidding. Thanks so much Tim, Sarai , and Alex Jacobs. It is by far the prettiest thing we own and it is so helpful. Plus you blessed a family from the Linda Miller with work for a week.






Thanks thank thanks.
