Merry Christmas!

I wanted to show you some houses on St. Thomas that are decorated with Christmas lights.  Unfortunately, the power went out for several hours during my photo shoot and only one of the houses I wanted to show you had a generator on. 

It's just more motivation to get solar power.

Enjoy!

We've Closed!

Thats right.  We closed on ourbank  loan last week.  Its about time.  So now we shouldn't have to worry about any delays due to money.  Closing is a great Christmas gift.  Now I need to make sure that we stay within our budget so the bank doesn't cut us off before our house is done.  My wish for the new year is that are columns are up by January 1, 2012.  Am I hoping for too much?

Just think, I should be in my own home next Christmas.

What do you want for Christmas and the New Year?

Moving Along

We were supposed to pour the concrete for the retaining wall today, but that didn't happen.  I hope its happening tomorrow.  I didn't speak to the contractor today so I'm not sure what the hold up is.

In the meantime, I am researching fixtures and putting together a wish list.  Got any suggestions?
