new casita

I am happy to write that exactly one month ago, Ryon and I signed the lease to our first house. The thrill of this event was almost indescribable. Happy, excited, scared, exuberant, anxious, stoked. I really can't begin to encompass everything I was, and still am feeling. But, suffice it to say that all emotions considered, I know I'm exactly where I need/want to be. I am looking forward to getting settled, which we are not yet, and creating a space where Ryon and I are equally comfortable. Lucy Jo and King Leo have both adjusted to the move...though Leo is still giving us some problems. Lucy loves her big yard, and has discovered several treasures, including: a plastic bat, a watergun, an aloe plant (which she may have eaten??), and some sort of large bone. Honestly, it resembles a human leg bone. Eeeek!

We have hosted a couple Sundays of feasting and drinking and look forward to more! We're planning on throwing a more formal Midsummer party in June to celebrate the new house, Ryon leaving Logan's (hopefully within the next few weeks!), and a send-off for John and Vinnie, who are taking a great big trip for most of the summer.

I'm not feeling especially creative or inspired at the moment, but I wanted to share the news of our house because, well, it's pretty darn exciting!

Pictures to follow shortly.


Over-n-out.
