Happy New Year 2011 !

A balmy 1st of January here in Tall Timbers, so we took some pix while we walked around the new digs.

Christmas pix

Here's a few Christmas pix in our new house. We got a 4-5 inches of snow on Christmas day & day after. Nothing like what NYC received. Halle' likes to sit in both window seats, but every once & awhile she likes to snuggle up with her brother Sam... while visions of sugar-plummed mice danced in their heads :)

Multi-Inspections on Friday

Two big inspections on Friday. First was the "Energy Star" house efficiency inspection. Valerie from Green Power Living brought her gear to perform a 'blow' certification of the house. A passing grade means that our house does meet Energy Star standards for efficiency. Second 'really' big inspection was performed by Gordon, it was the occupational permit cert inspection. Passing this inspection means we can move furniture into the house. As you can tell by the smiles on Valerie & Gordon's faces, we passed both inspections !!!! Yippee ! :)

Stair rails

Rick Blair & Ricky Phillips, master carpenters, finished the stairway rails. One of the last major 'inside jobs' now complete !

Green Grass of Home

Middleton Farms of Waldorf Md, delivered turf last Thursday. What a difference it is to finally have green grass instead of brown dirt :)

Friday is clean-up

Friday is clean-up day. Celine was cleaning up the 'entire' house. Herman was doing touch-up paint, and Scott & Mike from L&E Floors were installing the floating cork floor.
