We’re blogging from Barbados today as we’re on vacation celebrating Tash’s grandmother’s 90th birthday.

The other night we decided to pop by one of our favorite spots on the island for an impromptu dessert. Tapas Restaurant is a great little place that you can sit right on the water’s edge and enjoy the fantastic food and ambiance.

We were enjoying our desserts (apple crumble tart & tempura banana kebabs – soooo good!) when we realized that it was in this very restaurant one year ago that I first pitched the idea to Tash of selling our home & going after our dream. I remember she was pretty luke warm on the whole idea of having to move back home at first, but obviously, with a little prompting (and the promise of a “Carrie Bradshaw” closet in our bedroom) she came around.

Now here we are a year later with our Dreamhouse Project well underway. We’ll be checking in with Kevin all week while we’re here to stay up to date with what’s happening on site. This week, the framers should be in to get started on the first floor. Looking forward to seeing the pics of their progress!

We’ll update you all soon.
