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.

This is it!

The week that we have been working towards for the last 11 months is finally here-moving week. Last week we had our final building inspection, and we were told that we needed to add a front step hand and grab rail. That is in place, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that come Tuesday, all the inspections will be over. And not a minute too soon, since Keith's dad and brother plan on coming down this week to help us move. I can't believe we are really moving this week!

This weekend, Keith, Ronnie and Craig put in the wood floors in Julia and Andrew's room, hung more doors on the bedrooms, and remaining bath, and framed the closets for the shelves and clothes racks. We have some more doors still to go in (closets and office) as well as baseboards-but it really looks like a real house now!

The last two pictures are Molly this week. She decided to take a nap with Andrew's favorite blankie, and I snapped a couple shots before Andrew found out. I guess her grey beard is giving away the fact that she will be 10 years old next month. Good ole Mol.
