we thanked the village

dabney and i threw a small shindig yesterday afternoon to thank our contractor, architects, crew, and subcontractors yesterday afternoon.

Thank you party
not everyone could make it, but this photo captures a good majority of the hands that built this house.

it was fun to have a chance to hang out with everyone for fun for a change and gave me and dabney a chance to thank each person individually. according to everyone from the electricians to the flooring guys to the architects, it was a rare opportunity for them to see their work completed.

Thank you party

and just when we thought we were doing all the thanking, the crew surprised US with a gift.

our architect, phil, brought his famous pup tallulah along. she and friday got along splendidly and wrestled around on the floor. luckily, tim, the flooring dude, had departed long before the mayhem.
