One day back in March,
I logged on to facebook and stumbled across an update from Taylor's cousin;
she was asking if anyone wanted to rent their house up here in the CV.
They were going to take a job-offer on the east coast for a few years,
and were looking for dependable renters.
The promise of air conditioning,
a dishwasher,
two bathrooms,
three bedrooms,
a garage,
and a (future) yard
was enough to seal the deal.
Since moving in,
there has been a lot of change:
newly acquired patio furniture,
grass,
a garden,
(which came with a few mishaps...
...who knew a tomato cage could cause so many tears?)
a brand new (ten dollar DI find) bike,
with after-market tassels, bell and a basket so that it "totally looks like a girl bike",
sprinklers,
a pool,
lots of new friends,
and of course,
a baby sister.
We have loved our decision to move out of student housing
(with the exception of leaving our friends;
good thing they're only a few minutes away).
Cheers to our new house!

AH! I love it so much! You guys are so legit now. So grown up. I couldn't be prouder if I tried. Congrats on the new house- I can't wait to come see it and love on your sweet girls!!!
Hooray for houses! We rented apartments for 8 years before getting into a house. So much nicer!
Ok, your yard and garden turned out soo soo great!! LOVE IT! Our garden is turning out to be a bust....so i think we'll have our veggie harvest at YOUR house! haha! Do you have any lemons yet, btw?!
LOVE THE NEW BEDROOM!!! It looks awesome--as does everything else. You've done a fabulous job!!! And of course love the girls (and Taylor). So glad you have a home!!
love the house! it was so homey and as always so clean and spotless, it's so cute and you've done a great job decorating! Love the new master bedroom, hazels room is darling and nora's room is so cute too, still love that bedding. so lucky to have a great yard and that common area for hazel! such a great deal!
also, i swear we blog the same day almost every time! too funny:)
I laughed at the tomato cage. You've got to be loving cooking a kitchen bigger than a closet. Too bad this house didn't come in a "hobo spider-free" version.
I love the house. And I love how you decorated everything. I'm still in awe of the garden and dreaming of Taylor's pesto. Amazing.
Very cute, love everything you've done with the place! Saw a comment about hobo-spiders- are you seeing spiders? humm... we will see what we can do about that.
Yay Crystal! I am so happy for you! It looks great! I am not a decorator and my house struggles-and I dont have kids taking my time or making a mess. You would think I would have a better looking house. Oh well. I will be as good as you one day! enjoy your garden. . . mine is a dust patch now. It did not do well at all, so I gave up-sad.
I love your new house! Everything looks great :) Hazel is just so cute and it's good she has so many friends to play with.
