Our Last Visit to Our First Home at Abrigo

Escrow closed today which is bitter sweet for us.

Bitter because we are sad to leave our first home and are moving to temporary housing which is not the best situation. This is the home where we learned to paint, put in lam
inate wood flooring, tile, cut and install moulding, and we brought our precious newborn Angela home to. It is the only home she has known in her little life.

Sweet because we can look forward to hopefully moving into a larger home for our growing family.

Here is Angela in her room. This was where the tears started for me. Seeing it empty made me realized the reality of leaving.
Angela has had tons of fun playing in here and loved playing with the baby in the mirror.
The second bathroom where we learned to replace light fixtures, faucets, toilets and vents.
Here is the custom towel rack that Andy made to put all of Angela's towels and still have room for company to hang their things.
Angela in our empty living room. We spent many many hours in here. It took us a couple try's to find a green we liked for the accent wall.
We worked hard on this fireplace to take down the boring cement moulding and put up marble and Andy made that custom mantle. He has become so handy. I am so proud of him.
The beautiful view from one of our balcony's.
The view from our front door. We got some wonderful breezes from the canyons.
One of the zillion bunnies that would graze on the grass outside.
I will also miss all the replaced windows and doors. They were so easy to use and blocked out so much noise and temperature. Time to look for a new home and make new memories there.
