My daughter's GS troop completed their Silver Award project yesterday. They spent all day Friday and Saturday completely remodeling a room at the Ronald McDonald house. Their leader sent us before and after pictures and I am going to put them up on a website. When I do, I'll post the link. It's quite impressive that 9 fourteen year olds planned the room, raised the money, shopped for the furniture, carpet and decorative items and put it all together, including painting furniture and walls, in two days. A real "Trading Spaces" kind of project. Their leader sent us an email when she got home last night and said the room turned out much better than she ever dreamed, that the girls worked very hard all weekend and she was on the verge of tears when they finished and it was so beautiful. I'm very proud of them.

ETA: I hope every one of these girls goes to a college with an Alpha Gam chapter so I can write them glowing recommendations! They would all make great sorority women!
That room looks amazing! I especially love the word "HOPE" above the bed. How perfect for a Ronald McDonald house bedroom.
