Our House!

I originally created this blog to document my trip to Taiwan, but I decided to try to keep it up to document things that happen in our family.  A lot has happened since my last post.  Rather than playing catch-up, I think I'll just start again now.  I thought I'd kick it off with a tour of our new house!

Welcome!  Complete with our very own yellow rose of Texas. 



You walk in and immediately to your right is our living room, complete with a wall safe and everything.  Now that we have a place to store the cash, Matt can finally continue his work with the mob. ;) Also, I apologize if these pictures are hard to see, they all came from my cell phone.

  If you look straight ahead after you walk in, you can see our family room.

The hallway on the left leads to our master bedroom.  The family room  is open with our kitchen and eating area.






Here is the master bedroom:




The door on the right goes to our master bath and closet.


To the left of the front door you'll find this hallway:

Which leads to a bathroom,
our laundry room (this goes out to the garage),

and two bedrooms.  One of them is going to be a future nursery, but for now it's our exercise room.  We just bought a treadmill and are loving it.

The other one is being used as our guest bedroom/office.






One day we were at a museum, and they were giving out brochures of things to do in Dallas.  I thought it would be cute to get a couple and put them on the night stand in the guest room.  Matt picked out this one:  
In case you can't read it, it is the African American Visitors Guide to Dallas.  If that doesn't entice you to visit, nothing will.


And that completes the tour!  We're still adjusting to life in Texas, but it's been pretty good to us so far. :)
