Father's Day 2010

John made a wonderful chicken fajita dinner on his new cast iron barbecue griddle (Father's Day present). I whipped up the margaritas! Tuesday I should have the landscape plans.

June 17th More and more dust!

Nick is back to digging ditches.


















Bob is replacing fixtures because the flourescent ones drive me nuts.














Tracy is patching the hole that is too big for the new fixture.















The pool coping is being prepared for grout.

May 25th Planning for hardscape.

The shotcrete was put in on Friday.















It looks like high pressure blown on concrete.














Here is the finished product as of today. We need to come up with a hardscape design so they can place the boulders and bring up the trees. My visionary brain cells are all used up!

May 20th Pool Rebar Complete

The rebar is finished and the shotcrete is going in tomorrow.















Preston LOVES THE DIRT. He's getting his summer haircut today.

May 19, 2010 WE HAVE FINAL!!!!!

The inspector arrived in the afternoon and signed us off. We are officially in the house. What a great feeling.
















We connected the reverse osmosis to the fridge and were looking for leaks under the sink. I saw water coming out of the wall!! Nick had to climb up into the rafters to the far reaches of the attic to find and repair the leak. That's him wedged in the trusses. He had to dodge nails and fiberglass. What a trooper.

May 11, 2010 Progress Returns

Dave and Tracy are back. They are digging the pool today.















They completed the dig and dirt is EVERYWHERE again.
