Our House

We officially landed in our new neighborhood about 7 weeks ago and quickly settled in. Furniture is arranged, pictures are on the wall, we have a new floor in the kitchen & laundry room, and things are in their places (for now - if you know us well, things are never actually in their places). Friends have been asking for a glimpse into the new "Casa de Wood", so here it is!

Disclaimers: I have no idea how anyone actually takes a "good" picture of a room, so don't be too critical. Also, I never know whether to write descriptions above the picture or below the picture on this blog...any advice? Today I went the "above the picture" route.

Here is the living room, leading into the dining room, taken from the foyer:


Next, we have the kitchen with our beautiful new tile floor that you can't see very well, sorry.

**Note to Gulf/Atherton friends: That odd-looking white appliance you see with the cabinets - that's this fancy contraption called a dishwasher. It's amazing, you press a button and have multiple dishes washed at once, without getting dishpan hands! One day, this could all be yours...


Our den:


Guest bedroom:


Hall bathroom (one of 2, yes 2!! bathrooms):



Josiah's room:



Master bedroom:


Now you've seen it, so come visit!

love the new place, amy! i think you took some really good "room pictures". and yes, I agree, comments above the pictures are better.

It's BEAUTIFUL! I envy your dishwasher!!! Only a few more weeks until I, too, can enjoy the push of a button! (We settle soon and move in March)

I, for the record, am a strict "comment ABOVE the picture" person! But after reading multiple blogs, I think most people do it the other way. ???

thanks for sharing your house! It is gorgeous! So fun to see!
