We celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary by attending the Oak Hills Rummer Home Tour. Yep, that is how we show our love for each other, looking at houses... Probably not an anomaly in this crowd though!

We enjoyed the tour immensely, and the lecture really added value for us. The tour was well done, well managed. We're grateful to all of the homeowners who opened their wonderful homes for us to view. HPLO did a marvelous job. Next time would be super to add a refreshments component - another way to raise funds too, I'd have gladly paid a few dollars for a nice cup of coffee and a bagel. Overall it was a day very well spent and the event was really great!

Best of all, we were able to meet Mr. Rummer, and again so grateful for the opportunity.

Here is a link to our photo slideshow from the tour.

Thank you HPLO and Oak Hills HOA!

Thank you Julianna! Congratulations on your anniversary, we appreciate that you spent it with us. We really enjoyed working on the tour and had discussed refreshments, but it was just a little too much for us to organize on our first go. Now that we've done a big tour with this team, we'll be able to make some improvements for next time.
