Welcome to B-Town.

The first thing our friends ask us is, "Have you moved to Bloomington yet?"  The answer is yes. Finally.

After two years of living in Indy, we sold our first house. It still holds a special place in our hearts! There was nothing better than being two steps away from Eagle Creek trails and roads for some quiet, traffic-free running or biking.

And the big backyard, which we transformed for our open house wedding reception on 8/16/2008.

But during one of those two years in this house, we were home-staging fools!! It all ended well, despite a few hitches. Introducing house #2, in Bloomington, IN - our current home. We're the red house on the corner, total dream house. It's definitely more our style, more contemporary than the first house. We moved in in August, and while it's been a slow process, it is starting to come together. We've already had a chance to host some parties! You'll get the full house tour later, but check out the exterior:

  

(Disregard the banners and fake white fence... those are obviously no longer there)

The house used to be the model home and the builder's office. Even though they've been out of here for 6 months, I still get surprised by contractors or prospective buyers who enter our house unannounced. One woman even walked in and took one look at Todd; completely unfazed by a black bunny sitting in the middle of the living room, she asked if I would show her through the inventory homes.

All in all, we love Btown and its little-big-town feel. We're closer to the store, there's plenty of good running, and we love that most of our friends and family are down here. It's great to be here!!
