Reflections of 2013~

2013 in review   2013 was a whirlwind, we had many projects at the blue cottage, a few trips and to top it off I had 22 transactions this year in real estate...  It seemed that I lived in my car.. showing, selling, listing beautiful homes.. click here to view some of the homes sold in 2013.   

We had a sprinkler system installed... finally after 12 years! 

Worked hard in the gardens this spring 

Celebrated Memorial Day at Gruene Hall 

Had a new fence built to grow vines on this Spring..

Had a pergola built over the fireplace area
