We’ve all scene Extreme Home Makeover, but who needs Ty Pennington when you have 7 World Racers…
 
Last month, our Croatia contacts, Tim and Grace and their team, left for a conference in Austria for a week.  Team Clay took the opportunity to finish some renovation
projects in the cafe while they were out.  Chairs
needed painting; walls needed touch-ups; flowers needed to be planted; metal tables were sanded and art work was hung with glee. I even had the opportunity to showcase some of my own photographs taken from around the globe!
  
 
Tim had hopes of one day
turning the cafe basement into an office/lounge.  We all knew that time
was limited.  So as soon as they hit the road, we hit the projects.

It was hard work.  The cafe was open for business while these renovations took place so everyone came in early and stayed late, but we
finished before they arrived back to Croatia. 
 
 
 
I was so proud of my team how everyone came together to work on these renovations, choosing things they like to do and having fun doing it! (Aaron didn’t sleep the whole time 😉  … he was busy making all the brownies!)
 
      
 Was all our hard work
worth it?  Did they like the new look of their cafe?!

Yes!  We have happy cafe owners.  We are so thankful
for our contact Tim and his staff.  We felt so blessed working with
them last month.  We are glad we were able to bless them in return by
finishing the renovations on their cafe.
