The story behind the name

I have always loved sea glass because of the beautiful green, blue and brown hues that are made even more breathtaking when they are tossed in the water. I am also drawn to pretty glass bottles, especially those with unique shapes, textures or stories. When we purchased our land, it had lot of garbage where our driveway now sits. Included in this garbage were lots of glass bottles in all different shapes, sizes and colors. As unappealing as this may sound, there have been many beautiful and unique glass bottles found at the property. While we obviously do not want to drive on a green glass road, the road itself was only made possible after lots of green glass was recovered. So therin lies the story behind the name of the Adventures at Green Glass Road.

2011 is off to a good start!

I am sorry that we have been so busy that I have not written an update since last year :) All kidding aside, we did have a very busy and productive holiday "break". Keith and I are very fortunate that with our professions we are both able to take off a couple of weeks at the end of the year to enjoy friends and family. Since the beginning of the break was quite cold and windy, we enjoyed watching the kids playing with thier new presents and did a little more future house planning. By the end of the week, temperatures warmed up to the 50's and Keith had help again at the house. As you can see in this weeks pictures, they got the gables on the bedrooms and porch sheathed. Keith also rented a plate compactor for the garage floor to start prepwork for the concrete pour which will come later. The floor is even enough now that I got to park in the garage for the first time today!

In addition to house pictures, we have some nice ones of the kids enjoying Christmas.
