TGIF & time for our Open House Theme Song of the Week!

This weekend we have a fabulous new home open. The home was built by master builder Dominion Associates and it’s in the Heart of Vienna, VA. One of the wonderful things about living in Vienna is that it’s a great combination of “big city” and “small town”. Every amenity is available, commuting options are many and there are plenty of things to do. But Vienna also retains its “small town” feeling despite being part of a vast metropolitan area. People are friendly. Everyone knows your name. And you can get baseball at the Little League field, a hot dog at the Vienna Inn and apple pie at The Virginian.

Speaking of baseball - this weekend features a great “small town” event - the annual match up between the Madison High School & Oakton High School baseball teams. (Read more here.) So our song of the week is “Take Me Out To The Ball Game”. (Scroll down for open house details)

It’s the weekend! And that means it’s time for our Open House Theme Song of the Week (and list of open houses for this weekend!).

First - our song. We like to follow the music scene here in Vienna - at Jammin Java, Wolftrap, The Barnes and a bunch of other places. Next week, Jammin Java is hosting one of the original “ska bands” (”The Toasters”). If you were around back in the 80’s, you remember ska and it’s making a comeback. So this week’s theme song comes from another old ska band - “Madness”. And since this is a blog post about open houses - the song name fits right in. Can you guess it?

Give up?

It’s “Welcome To The House of Fun”! So, check out the video and then come by our “houses of fun” in Vienna and Falls Church this Sunday! (details below)
