the after party

we enjoyed pizza from the excellent East Side Pies and relaxed in the newly furnished and vegetated courtyard. Beckham had so much fun he had to get showered off before going home.

Homes Tour Success!!

whew the homes tour is over and i am very happy. Everyone had very kind words for our little casita. Word is there were about 3500 tickets sold- so we got some portion of that number that came through the house- our only casualty was a paver out front that cracked- no big loss. Well the A/C did decide to freeze up on Saturday after the guys had been making adjustments all week- but luckily it was a fairly cool day with a nice breeze. I only snapped a few pics before everyone got here, Emily and Patrick got a few good ones too. It was a lot of work, but it was a good push to get the house "done". Oh my posion ivy is almost totally gone after 12 days of steriods I no longer look like a scaly monster- well at least not due to the posion ivy.
