WE ARE IN!


We have finally moved in and are definitely loving the house. We still have some interior details to finish, but we are really enjoying the peaceful views and watching the leaves change. Our next project will be tackling the landscape in the spring.

bamboo railing






Christian endured another long weekend working on our bamboo railing for the terrace. Chrisitian's brother Paul came to help with the cedar decking and to finish the trespa on the cladding. Both very tedious jobs. Thank you Paul!!! Wow! It is incredible to see all of the hard, hard work that my dear husband has done to make this house possible. The boys love the bamboo fence and especially the 40+ bamboo swords they've aquired.

concrete, bikes, and scooters...







My little superheros are enjoying their playroom! We are getting very close and very anxious to move in.

FINISHED FLOORS!





The floors are finally finished and we can install appliances and start moving boxes in next week. We are still working on the front walkway, the terrace, the basement and a lot of small details, but the end is in sight!

KITCHEN PROGRESS




I'm not sure, but I think James may be inside one of the cabinets in this photo.

SPRING IS HERE!


Christian's brothers Paul and Adam, and two of his sons Matthew and Seth, came to help for the weekend. We had great weather and the boys had a lot of fun playing in the dirt and working on projects. It is great to see life on the trees and I am now motivated to think about landscaping... Any ideas are welcomed as long as they are low maintenance.
