Home Sweet Home for One Year
/Today marks the one year anniversary of moving into our first home as well as our move down to Tacoma. I'd like to say I got some awesome pictures of the whole family in front of our house to commemorate the occasion, but Caleb was already down by the time Josh got home. And this mom ain't pushing back bedtime for a photo.
I almost just posted a photo of the house (isn't it adorable?), but then Josh arrived home from work so we did a selfie (naturally).
We are so very happy in our home and with Tacoma. I particularly love...
...the window in our kitchen and how I can look into the backyard and see the flowers or dog running around.
...the light that comes into the front room and how Asha and Caleb look outside together.
...that we are so close to parks. There are at least three within walking distance.
...the location. We can take a 15 minute walk to the Proctor district for coffee, library books, groceries, and the farmer's market. Or, hop in the car for fun at Point Defiance Zoo, Aquarium, and park. Or, go to the waterfront.
...that we have a guest room, so friends and family can stay with us.
...our blueberry bush (wait, that's Caleb...well, I love it, too).
...that I know my way around town now, and we have our favorite spots (but still have opporunties to discover more!).
...that it is ours.
It's amazing to think about all that has happened over the past year - especially with Caleb. It feels like we've lived here forever (in a good way). This definitely feels like home now!
Cheers to many more years!
