ok.
so many of you are confused at the morse's living situation.
well. simply.
we are moochers.
for the three years that jake and i have been married,
we have been living in someone's place.
we started out at a cute p.g. basement apartment and lived there for 3 months.
then, to save a little money, the opportunity arose to live in our friend's place
while they left for summer sales.
(we call it the summer condo.)
then as summer was ending,
my grandparents opened their basement up to us to live in
until they left for the warm south in the fall.
once they drove away, we took control of the place.
(we call it the winter home.)
we have repeated that cycle for 3 years now.
that.is.a.long.time.
sadly, my grandma's health was affected from all the "vacationing"
(but good for us cause we want them closer!)
so they announced they were coming back early this spring.
permanently.
jake and i made the decision to get out of their hair
and finally take the step towards living in our own place.
so we began the search.
and low and behold,
two days later we found this little place.
(we call it the alpine cottage.)
moving is part of our repertoire.
i am just thankful that my grandparents are staying here close to family now
and what perfect timing.
i'm hoping that one day i can tell my kids that they can't get everything they want cause i lived in someone else's house for three years.
that'll teach' em!
