Happy 1st night of Hanukkah. Koda and Harley got dressed up for the occasion.
We are making use of some of the left over moving boxes. Each night the boys get to pick a box and it’s a total surprise what’s inside.
Happy Hanukkah – Night 1
Taking in a game
Once every 4 or so years we get in a Red Sox game at Fenway. Last night was a hot one but as always it’s a good time with lots of bad food to eat!
Fenway was hopping with not that many empty seats.
JMan was dressed for the occasion while GMan was his usual trendy self.
3/4 family.
Whole gang.
Here’s a photo from September 2014. The last time we got in a game.
My two Starbuck buddies
I’m rather partial to Starbucks but now our ball of hair can also enjoy a sup of something with a silly name but only one ingredients! It’s on the super secret menu and it’s rightly named a Puppuccino.
My better 1/2 also gets in on the action, but with a slightly longer name and a few more ingredients.
However, here’s a good example of a customer order you really want to be front of:
I need a Double Ristretto Venti Half-Soy Nonfat Decaf Organic Chocolate Brownie Iced Vanilla Double-Shot Gingerbread Frappuccino Extra Hot With Foam Whipped Cream Upside Down Double Blended, One Sweet’N Low and One Nutrasweet, and Ice……oh and I have rewards!
TGIF
That was a week….I’d like to sleep in but the tile guy is coming over for (hopefully) the last time in the am.
The General Store never looked better.
Koda chilling on the Green.
Foggy morning from our bedroom window.
Our mosquito attraction tool….aka oversized sodium light. To be honest compared to carry me away Groton mosquitos we have very few here.
Random happenings
Its a while since I posted anything bar our ongoing renovation project. Here’s a few from the last month or so.
This in seen better days.
Koda, sitting around…
Koda in ears…
My turn….
Come up will ya…I don’t have all day to wait for you lot!
Professor Moliarty will not be down for breakfast.
Look beyond Kodas nose.
You might ask why we have a toilet on our bed! But Koda took a liking to it.
Hot dog anyone?
At Bolton Orchards for ice cream. Kodas new favorite destination.
Permit submitted
Kind of an odd thing to do on Saint Patrick’s Day but today was my self imposed dead line for submitting our Permit Set. So, we are “officially” off to the races on the new digs.
The above is a sniped from the 900 series drawings with Jess’ delightful addition.
See for yourself….go ahead!
Very useful tool during the remodeling phase.
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day to all. Remember, stay away from green beer. Like Henry Ford said “it only comes in black”….real beer….well stout that is!
Phase 3
Third times a charm. We closed on the new place the other day. Now its time to finish the plans, submit and move forward.
Good news is Subu fits nicely in the garage.
Random weekend photos
Long time no blog. Here’s a few from over the weekend.
Front left corner of our new place. Jess and I got in to do some more measuring and we also walked the lot looking for the boundaries.
Long since forgetting. Perhaps nature wants to play.
Found these in the woods. No idea what formed them.
Koda sporting a new look! He was not impressed.
P&S in hand
Offer on November 5th, Purchase & Sale in hand today, January 15th. Closing still set for February 28th.
In the middle I got in and did a measure up so I could get a jump on creating the Existing Conditions.
12 years + at running Revit came in handy. However, I’ll admit this was a challenging model to build.
Its not quite finished on the outside yet, still need to finish the screened in porch. The inside is far enough along to get the design juices flowing. Stay tuned, lots more to come.
