The old house

This is just me saying goodbye to our Pennsylvania home.

For Leslie

Leslie asked me to post pictures of my new house, so this is for her. One of the best motivations for me to get pictures up is for my best friend, who now lives in Thailand, to ask me for it. So, without further ado:

The front of our house, you can see there's a little porch on the side. I like to read there when it's not too blazing hot out. Which is most of the time this summer.


Closer up, you can see Shelby in the door, anxiously waiting for me to come back in so she can follow me around.


Living room, from the front door. We're not done yet. We want to hang a big mirror over the couch and buy a couple of accent chairs, but you get the idea.


Living room from the opposite corner, you can see the pretty front door.


Looking at the kitchen from the dining room.

This is a closer up of the kitchen. Here you can kind of see my stove top that's set into the counter. This is one of the cool things about the house.


Right now this is the room that holds all the unpacked boxen.


This is the big bathroom.


The extra bedroom.


Two shots of our bedroom.



The tiny master bathroom, hey, I'm just happy to have two bathrooms.


A couple shots of the basement. This was before we added the foosball table. It's the game room, rec room, fun times room.



So that's the basics. I didn't take pictures of the garage. It just has our cars in there and a bunch of empty boxen. We're loving our house, and so happy to be moved in. Also, did I mention that my sister lives seven houses down? It's awesome. After many years of living too far apart, we live five minutes away, walking time. It rawks. So now we're ready for visitors!
