one-triple three-six

okay, okay i have been bullied into posting about this. with all the visitors & landscaping & meeting such fun neighbors, & general life busy-ness i wasn't finding the time to do the thorough post i wanted. a handful of these pictures i had to sift through to find because i'd taken them back in february. it looks pretty identical to how it did that first week with only a few exceptions like the white bar stools & the ceiling fan in the family room. obviously there are things that i still need to tweak & add to. & if you've ever been to my house (or my mom's) you'll see a lot of things have been recycled but for now, we're pretty happy with our new cozy home. that's actually ours. :)

 ¡moving day!

i love this shot! such a fun week.

so... here's a tour:

ranch level: porch, entryway, office where the beans love to wait for daddy on the window seat, laundry room, guest bath with all sorts of eclectic art from our travels.

 the main room is awesome because it's very, very open.

 as much as i love these floors i am seriously sweeping 4 times a day.

 we've enjoyed the large island in the kitchen & 10 foot ceilings give us plenty of vertical space.

the dining area is just the right size & we have these fantastic custom cordless fabric blinds that totally disappear when they're up (thanks g'pa!). i adore that there isn't a formal dining which was actually a struggle for us to find. i really wanted us to have full use of our living spaces. now i can happily say that we don't have a formal living room or dining. yay!

 the master is one of 2 bedrooms on the main level, but we use the other as the office.

 the bathroom is totally open to the bedroom & we particularly love the big ole tub. :)

lower level: beans bathroom (thanks gramvi!), guest bedroom, unfinished storage room that will eventually be another bedroom + a smaller storage space.

the bottom of the stairs goes straight into the basement living area. it's a great size so we've got it set up with the playroom on one side...

(notice the "letters" in the mailbox, their monogrammed aprons my mama made, their rarely organized toy closet under the stairs, & their little teal kitchen cabinet that took me a century to finish but i'm obsessed with!)

& a tv room on the other side with the mr.'s pride & joy; the mini fridge.

then there's the nursery. with blackout shades & plenty of room it is one of my favorite spaces in the house.

besides making the beds i didn't have to clean up much. it's super nice to have enough space that there is a spot for everything.

now that we also have a usable backyard, come visit us on the corner of cedarville!
