The reasons I should win the HGTV Green Home.

Have you seen it? It is fab-u-lous and James and I are MEANT to live in the 2008 HGTV Green Home.

1) I’ve been entering religiously EVERYDAY.

2) I talk about winning it all the time…seriously, it is scary how much I talk about it.

3) I’ve been day dreaming about all for the fun events we are going to hold & time we will spend there. The first event will be our first anniversary; June 29, 2008. The second event would be Wooden and Leah’s baby shower to welcome little Christopher Rodney; July 5, 2008…..Farther down the road it would be a great place to bring our own new little bundles of joy home to. Not to mention all of the family Thanksgivings and Christmas celebrations.

4) I am a LEED Accredited Professional and it is a GREEN HOME in a green development.

5) All of the accents in the home are what Lynne has dubbed “Amber Green.”

amber green [am·ber green] adjective,

1.	of the color everything amber wears and owns…similar to chartreuse

All of the accents in our condo and in our wedding are “Amber Green.” I also frequently wear “Amber Green.”

“Amber Green” Items in our condo

-the kitchen

-the hall accent wall

- the living room rug

-dining table runner

- chopsticks

-soy sauce holder that matches chopsticks

- stripes on duvet cover

- really cool pottery bowl with lid

- lamp shades

6) Our golden retriever, Rocky (aka The Rock or Rockstar) would love being that close to the water. Also, the upstairs bathroom would be Rocky’s bathroom after all he does love to shower and it is decorated with dog prints. (Don’t worry Rocky is good at sharing so he will let you use it when you visit.)

7) I love that area of the country. My husband and I both lived in Savannah for 6 years while we attended SCAD. (That was back when you had to drive to Hilton Head, S.C. to go to Target and Old Navy.)

8 ) It has a brand new washer and dryer (in a real laundry room) and after 1.5 years of living on our condo we are now on our second washer/dryer combo (stuffed into a small closet) and this one doesn’t work either.

9) I will be so disappointed if I loose.
