Our little slice of heaven







So this is the place, it's still a work in progress and is messy, but we love it! Some of my favorite things about it are: a very high ceiling that makes the place feel big, tons of windows to let light in (in fact I don't turn a single light on all day), a seperate laundry room, a backyard with a little patch of grass and our very own palm tree (I LOVE the palm tree because it catches all the sea breezes from Laguna), only one attached wall in the living room so it really feel like a seperate home, it's a private housing development so there is no through traffic and the whole place feels like one big cul-de-sac which is great for kids, I do not have to get on a freeway to get to the beach, a two car garage (having garage door openers is just the most exciting thing ever). The list could probably go on but anyways we are just loving it. The move itself was a little naightmarish but hopefully it will all get sorted out (think u-haul being towed and huge sum of money to get it out). So it is only 2 bedrooms but we are expecting plenty of visitors, seriously. You'll have the whole downstairs to yourself:) That is probably what we're most excited about. Just having a place to share with all the people we love. That's what feels like home.

Hooray, your own home! I'm so happy you guys found something. And it looks beautiful! We can't wait to see it in person in a couple of weeks.

Sorry about the towed U-Haul. When we moved to our apartment in Virginia our rental car was towed twice the first two nights we were there. Sucks!

I love it! We've got to come visit soon. Maybe when Regan and Pete are there. Me and Steve could have Mom and Dad's house all to ourselves.
