be happy for this moment.

He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

And just because, really, it is so darn cute I wanted to chare some additional photos I took of our new house in St. Louis. Nick meets with our landlord on Saturday so it is officially ours-to-rent for a year.


On my next trip up there he will be moved in (with his large television, DVR, air matress and assorted tailgating chairs) so it will be fun to get in there and start ordering some furniture and making it our own.

Front view from the driveway

View when you walk in the front door - dining room ahead, living room to the left (ignore the gapping hole, they had to remove the vent cover when the redid the floors)

Looking left from the front door to the (working!) fireplace in the living room.

Kitchen - small but newer cabinets with extrodinarly mismatched appliances

Front bedroom (the back bedroom looks exactly the same)

View from the dining room to the back porch. Garage off to the left and the trailer will be gone
