Picture Updates

We've got a few photos to get everyone caught up. 

There was Christmas of course...


Frank the bunny, the newest addition...




Feeding the birds at Peninsula State Park in Door County




Skiing and snowboarding at Sunburst Ski Hill...


And just today Jenna and Nora got to try rock climbing.  Elsa was out with a friend from gymnastics, but I've assured her that she'll get a chance as well.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving might be skipping a few things since our last post so....Happy Gregory Palooza, first day of school, Labor Day, Pumpkin fest, Halloween and end of the Farmhouse season.

This is pretty much just going to be a photo dump since I haven't looked at my camera in awhile, and things really escalated quickly there.  On top of the aforementioned events, we had a guest photographer come in and take some photos for the site.  Elsa Gregory wanted to expand her portfolio a bit and was kind enough to shoot some pics for free.  If you are interested in more of her prints they are available by contacting our sales department.

We'd like to put a big Nice Job! out there for Nora at her recent dance competition as well.  Her team placed 2nd in their Jazz routine at the Milwaukee Arena a few weeks back.  And now that she has contacts she will no longer need to hold back on her dance moves for fear that she launches a pair of glasses into the crowd and injures some spectators.  

And finally, now that Nora also has contacts they decided to see how close they could look for George and Amy who stopped by this week....
vote on the sidebar (top right) to see if you can tell them apart.

Projects update

So....all we've done lately is work on the Brookfield home and a few things up north.  Unfortunately that's all we have to talk about around here.  We're boring, I get it.  But, the basement rec room is finished, the well for the egress window is dug, the pole barn is cleaned up and the landscaping outside is almost finished.  We were trying to bring neighborhood values down for awhile around here, but then I decided to move the three piles of dirt along the property.  We turned the dirt piles into a berm, re-graded our back/side yard, and filled in along the new parking pad.  Once the grass takes hold we'll look like non-dirtbags again.

Here's the basement finished up,


and the bookcase/ping pong storage.


The pole barn all cleaned up, well mostly...

The new parking pad backfilled,

 the berm along Fieldstone Ct,

the backyard without Hydrangea roots all over

and the kid who logged four hours in the skid steer.


Also it was determined that Big Ugly really does know how to get things done, despite having a bad clutch for a bit.  With that little fix behind us it was time to put it to work.
