The “mostly” finished product party




Our "Carpenter" and good buddy Flo!



Saturday was a crazy day of trying to finish up the apartment in time for the housewarming party we scheduled for that evening. It actually proved to be a pretty smart scheme to kick us in the butt to finish the place. The kitchen still needed many finishing touches, the lights needed to attached to the ceiling, some shelves needed to be hung up, the entry way was strewn with the millions of tools we had been using to create the space and of course the entire place needed a deeper clean. Anke and Gerhard brought over a bunch of food for us to serve and we hit up the store for the beverages. After a long day of work we finally toasted at 9:00 to our super cute pad. The party was to start at 10:00 so we had a little time to sit before our guests arrived. Of course you never know how many people will really show up and there are always those last minute drop outs so we were left with enough food and alcohol for another couple parties. Overall it was good conversation, good music, good snacks and drinks, and the best part about it was to actually admire and chill out in the “mostly” finished product. We were thinking about and wishing our friends from the states and other parts of Europe could have joined us and know that they would have it they could have been “beamed” from one place to another within seconds.
