There is really no need for words . . .

Our New Home

Welcome! I don't have very many pictures to post since we are barely moved in. In fact, I stole these from our listing. : ) But I am super excited to get the show on the road. I'll be even more excited when everything is in its' place. : )

Come on in!

I am looking forward to spending lot of time in this room!

I think the kids will love this area for exploring.

I can't believe all these trees are on our property!

Oak trees, fruit trees, trees, trees, trees!

A soon to be favorite spot : )

Cheers to many more sunsets!

Goodbye Ferrelo Road

Casa Ferrelo

Yes, that's right. We are moving.
We will still be living in Santa Barbara, just in a different part of town. Many things factored into this decision. But we have also outgrown Casa Ferrelo and therefore seemed like a good time for a change. 

Oh I am going to miss this view!

July 2008

Sophia - 11 months old

Aside from our condo, this was our first real house as a family. My first "grown-up" house. Many memories were made in this home over the last 4 years, from Sophia's first birthday all the way to Kalista's arrival. I will always have a special spot in my heart for Casa Ferrelo.
But I look forward to making more happy memories in our new home . . .

Our Ladybug

I don't even know where to start. Did this really happen? Did our baby girl start preschool?! 

I don't know if this was beginner's luck, 2nd child syndrome, Kalista's personality, the honeymoon phase or a combination of all, but she ran right in like she owned the place.

This was the first thing that caught her eye. Sit n' Spin!

I thought this day was going to be traumatic for me. But no tears were shed from either party. 

Rolling play dough with Miss Ornelas.

Kalista, it seems just like yesterday  . . . 

And now, I take back what I wrote earlier (sniff, sniff).

HAVE THE BEST YEAR EVER BEAUTIFUL LADYBUG!
