We Moved

Sorry for the blogging lag, my time has been occupied by moving and starting work again. Our move is really not too exciting. We went from a two bedroom townhome to another 2 bedroom townhome, about 2 miles away from our previous one. I was very sad to move away from our garden, hot tub, neighbors, and quick freeway access (our new place adds on atleast 10 minutes to my commute!). But I am trying to make myself happy at my new place by concentrating on our awesome kitchen appliances (finally a Dacor gas stove in a rental!), our proximity to a big park with a lake, soaking tub in the master bath, and a garage. So there are some pluses for sure, but I still miss the old place =(

Here's a few pictures of the new place. These are post painting...the guy before us lived here for 7 years with hideous faux finishing all over the place...our first piece of business was to cover that up and replace the ugly blinds with some fresh new curtains. Next piece of business will be to get rid of the couches and replace with a leather couch and chair (as you can see, 2 couches don't really fit.) Third thing: NURSERY!! The second bedroom is currently empty, waiting for me to pick a paint color and furniture =)

One of the bathrooms pre-painting (ugh...7 years with that wall??)
Ahh, the new downstairs 1/2 bath.

Gas stove and copper hood!
The dining room (don't you keep your iron on your wine rack too?)
A not too flattering picture of the living room, but atleast you can see our new curtains and too big couch.
