Hey everyone! Hope you're all enjoying the summer and staying cool. It's been a hot couple of weeks up here on the East Coast- but we're managing to stay cool and enjoy. We've been told it's a rarity for it to hit the 90's and even though it's hotter than we'd like- have to say it doesn't really phase us SoCal peeps! At least when the air is dry. Now, the humidity's another story! :) It rains about once or twice a week. Which is nice to get an occasional cool down and keep the place green! The thunderstorms are very new to us. Well... more so me. Joshua LOVES em! I like them when I'm home but when out and about still makes me a tad nervous. I can't help but think is a tornado coming??? What do you want?! You can take the girl out of California but you can't take the California out of the girl! :-)So Joshua and I are happy to say we're out of Manchester and finally all settled into the new place! The last apartment was good to us in the aspect that it was paramount to us getting here but it was not at ALL our taste and by the end of the lease we were SOOOOO ready to get out of there! We moved about 45 mins east to a small town called Hampton Falls located in the Seacoast region of New Hampshire. The population is just over 2200- crazy huh? We love this area! Kinda funny this is the region we fell in love with as it's the one we didn't have the chance to explore on our 1st trip up here. I love being near the ocean! And I love having the best of both worlds- the beautiful greenery and the coast! We get that small town feel but we're so close to Hampton and Portsmouth we have more options for shopping, dining and entertainment. Not to mention Joshua's commute is cut by more than half and it's centrally located between both of our jobs. Perfect. This is a perfect fit for us.
15 Kensington Rd~ Home sweet home!
Our unit. Unit W- just in case anyone wanted to send us a housewarming gift? :)
Driveway view
Across the street- so beautiful!
The backyard...
This is our fav part of the house!!!
Pretty huh?!
Back of the house
View from the sun room
We're gonna make a lil music area in the corner... looking for a much needed something to put all my records in. Any ideas??
We'd also like to make an eating area here... thought this would be nice during the warmer months. We can open all the windows and should get a nice breeze in! This card table will have to make do for now...
Let's take a look at the house
The Living room
Kitchen
Washer & Dryer- yyyyyes! (The things we take for granted.)
The bedrooms and bathroom are upstairs...
Our 2nd bedroom is ceiling to floor, wall to wall boxes... what happens when you have your whole life with you and no where to put it.
Bathroom
It's a bit dated and baby blue. Buy hey, it has character!
Where all the action happens! hehe ;)
View out our bedroom window...
Steep stairs... Joshua and I managed to get our tempurpedic up this. Only took us about an hour of blood, sweat and eff bombs... :-O About midway through we couldn't help but laugh!!
Joshua surprised me by having this cake made on my Bday. It's an almond cake with a raspberry cream frosting. It was DELICIOUS!!!
Also with this! :) Yay! I start a photography class August 3rd. I'm really excited...
Summer time, summer time!
Old school ice cream stands are a New England staple... rain or shine!
Seriously- Best. ice cream. EVER!
Harry Potter 3D = Dorks
NH has such a small coast we're just mins from Mass and Maine. In fact half of my drive to work is through Mass. Funny huh?
We took a 15 min drive down to Newburyport MA for the Riverfront music festival
The harbor
Purty
Shock top!
Lobsta roll!!!!!!! Mmmmmmm
Gelato
The park was covered with people having a great time!
