We are FINALLY Moving!

August 28, 2013

After almost two years of living in our “temporary” digs, we are FINALLY moving to our home in Coral Gables!!! Hooray!!!! I wish I could say the renovation was complete… we still have a punch list of about six dozen items for the inside of the house alone, and we haven’t touched the outside. Ugh… we’re talking re-stucco, paint, ripping out the ugly black asphalt driveway, installing pavers, redoing the sprinkler system, remarciting the pool, finishing the covered patio, retiling the pool and patio, and last but not least – landscaping.  But at least we will be IN!!! My Mother (who is truly a Saint – and an expert packer) is en route as we speak to keep my sanity intact help lend a hand.  We’ll have our hands full, but I look forward to reconnecting to the Blogosphere next week… hopefully with some pretty pictures!

Enjoy the long weekend!

    Happy (laborious weekend) Labor Day! How sweet of your mom to make the trip and help out. Holding my breath with anticipation to see the "redoux" (a Louisiana term) of the estate! Called my sister yet? Dying to hear…

    Ok,so I'm taking the Pink pagoda's advice and visiting you….she said you were a must read…and boy was she right!! I have only scrolled through the first several posts and just added you to my reading list! So glad you are moving to Coral Gables! I used to live in Key Biscayne…and got married at the Biltmore! Looking forward to seeing your new home
