The New Abode

So, we're still renting (we have a one-year lease), but we are really liking our new place.  It is 4 blocks from the kids' school, a few blocks from a grocery store, 2 miles from the beach, and it's got so....much....space.  We won't be able to buy for a few years yet (the goal is before Jeremiah starts high school....), but we are really thinking this is the neighborhood we want to live in long term.  It's great!  The house is pretty much unpacked and organized.  Just a few more photos to hand, a futon and coat rack to buy, and Peter to be home for good (he's staying in Portland to work until he gets an official start date here).  The garage needs to be organized, but we can fit one car at the moment so that will do until we have to get another car.  It's good to be back!  Here are some photos of the house.
