NEW HOME!

Our starter home is in the heart of Rose Park. It's in the same neighborhood where we grew up. The reason why we chose this area is we love the sense of community that there is in this neighborhood. As we looked at many homes we found that is something important to us that is hard to come by these days. 

Since this was our Christmas to each other our biggest goal was to be moved in by Christmas. We were rushing to give our new home the little TLC that it needed so that we can be settled in by then.

Our realtor gave a us a unique house warming gift. He took a picture our new home and had an artist sketch it. Blandina was absolutely in love with it.

Let the fun begin....
