Most of you will find this completely boring, so I’m going to spare you the details over the next year.  But, we’re excited, cause we’re building a pool and pool house in the back yard.  For those of you who are actually interested, you can keep up with that progress at pool.flamingobear.com.  I will post just the occasional picture here on flamingobear, but you can always find more over there.

Note: I’m just getting started, since the pool is just getting started, but you can go check out how far they’ve gotten if you’re interested.

I’d like to find a way to make this post interesting, or important, or something, but mostly we’re just excited cause we got our window seats finished. Jenn and I have an uncommon ability to be patient, occasionally. We’ve been in our house for three years now, and we just got around to getting cushions for the four window seats we have. So, I’m sharing them now… Woo!

Thanks also to my excellent model, featured below. She is, of course, wide awake; she’s just a remarkable actor.

Many thanks go out to Sarah (last name unknown) and Cindy Hudson who did the work on this for us. I am loathe to give up control of things I care about, but I was able to do so here and end up happy! This doesn’t happen all that often, so both deserve credit. I met Cindy as she did some funky painting in our office, and she introduced me to Sarah, who does the seamstress work. Thanks again!

Check this out… so, you may know that our house was featured in a book recently. A local talk show wanted to interview the authors, and thought that a local home would be a great place. Well, as it worked out, that home was ours. So, in the end, we got a cool little video feature as well.

Lastly, I would like to apologize to Jenn’s brother Doug. The last few seconds of this clip will crush him, as we will have risen to a level of importance that he can never match. Let me just say, Lelan is an idol to us all.

Last fall, we had a visit from a photographer with thoughts of including our house in a book. Well, our doubts have passed and our pictures have been published. The book is widely available now, including several pictures from our house, and we were just pictured in the Living section of the Tennessean. Check it out here.
