Status update

We still have a few small items left on our punch list but we are essentially done. Except for the landscaping, window coverings, blah blah blah. The heavy equipment is here to establish (dig)the terraces and final grading, then we can install the sprinklers and start planting.

Our big celebration is still in the planning stages. Most likely we will shoot for a late summer party so plan accordingly.

Richard, our number one blogger on the site will receive two free airline tickets so he and his wife can attend. Bring your tux buddy and plan to stay in the butlers pantry!!

A brief comment on how it has worked out so far. On budget, on time. The house feels bigger that we expected and the noise carries because of the high ceilings and all hardwood floors. The audio/video/lighting system is beyond belief, truly fabulous.

Wow, I am speechless (which is a rarity for me as you might have gathered!).

Thank-you so much, that is incredibly generous of you, and we are so excited to come and see your wonderful house in person.

And of course I will be all butlered up, and can't wait to stay in my very own pantry.

Thanks again, you guys are the best! And may I just add an "EEEEEEEEK!" of excitement. And also, if permitted, a "YAYAYAYAYYAY!" Can't wait to finally meet you both later in the summer.

:D <- That is me with the biggest smile on my face
