A few plants and fingers crossed…

I saw glass potted succulents on a blog a couple weeks ago and just had to make it myself.

I love  plants, but have yet to keep any alive. I would love to have a mini garden on our balcony and thought I should start with some succulents. They don’t need as much attention and they are so pretty! I bought two bowls from Michael’s and three succulent plants from Lowe’s. I already had some potting soil, so it only cost $11 to make. I think they turned out so cute! I’m wondering how long they will thrive in their shallow pots. If they start to look a little sad I figured I can easily repot them and put them on our balcony.

New Paint!

The house is painted! Well, all except the 2nd bedroom, 2nd bedroom bathroom, and the laundry room. We painted the living room, dinning room, and hallway and hired a painter to do the high walls above the foyer stairs and stairs up to the 3rd floor. After 8 months of boring white walls we are very happy to have more color in the house! Now we need to get more decorations and photos/art for the walls :)

Our Home

We have been living in our new townhouse for 9 months now! It is 1,300 square feet, 3 story, 2 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath townhouse in Anaheim, Ca. We moved in on November 6, 2008 – 2 days before our wedding! Not a smart idea. Buying a home and moving on top of wedding planning is a little overwhelming. It ended up working out perfectly!

Standing in our garage the day we decided to buy and put down a deposit!

We got to write something on our bedroom wall before the drywall went up during the frame walk through.
