Porches!!!

Work, a European tour and a sickly dog have kept us busy, busy, busy since moving in. I haven't updated this blog in a while, but we really have been making progress on the house. The pressure is off though since we actually live here now. whew.
Greg tore out the front porch rails (they were built and put in to meet code only) and came up with a fancy new design. Love it- and the house numbers too.
Clark and Greg put in the back screen porch this week. Lots to do though still. We are planning on using the leftover slate from the roof and putting it on the lower walls out back. Going to attempt to acid stain the cement floor which should be very interesting.
All this and more to be completed before my family comes down for Thanksgiving! No pressure G.

I Love the screened in porch. Hope your doggie is feeling better.

Hope your pup is okay. It's never easy to have sick pets, especially when you're also dealing with vacations and being worried about them.

I love those house numbers and covet them for our own bungalow. Off to search the internets.

Can't wait to do some porch sitting in that fancy screened in porch and no longer risk the chance of catching maleria.
