Follow along with me and watch as my good friend builds his family dream home. If you pay close enough attention you could end up with an invite to the grand opening deck party. If you get to know him you might end up with a life long pass for a bonus beverage when playing the back 9! If you are going to have an entrance like this you hope there is something exciting at the end. You won't be Continue Reading

Giants Game!
The Lucky Livak Family attended the Giants game as the winners of the DFRE website contest. This was their view! They even got to watch The Bum pitch although the Giants lost 2-0.

Congrats to the Livak family and Continue Reading

They are very organized and all the sale items have to be in the tent before the sale Continue Reading
