Remember when I used to blog here? I'm on maternity leave, and I feel compelled to reflect on 2020 and share more about how we've been.
We moved from Tennessee to my hometown in Indiana early this year, and we bought our first house as a family! So many things came together to make this happen, and it felt really great to move from apartment living to a house with a yard for a growing toddler.
We found a lovely house just 15 minutes from my parents and my office, as well as walking distance to a great paved trail. The yard is perfect, it has a paver patio which we hope to furnish and enjoy more over time (we used it for a kiddie pool mostly this year!), and the previous owner who built it ensured we have pretty landscaping year-round. The perennials he planted delighted us all spring and summer.
We did make a few updates to the house, which was built in 2008. The downstairs had three flooring types: laminate, vinyl, and carpet. We put engineered hardwood the whole way through the downstairs, and we painted the whole house. It really spruced things up and gave us a blank slate, as we did also need to add some furniture for the downstairs mainly.
