There are so many things I love about our house. The long process we went through to buy it as a short sale three and a half years ago makes it all the more sweet. One of the things I love is our dining room. We lived in two houses prior to this one, but never had a dining room before we moved here. My mom bought us the table and chairs in an antique store downtown and found the hutch that holds Grandma's dishes at an auction. There are often random things on the table that have found their way to the nearest flat surface, so to see it looking so neat and tidy in here is a rare treat. We don't eat in here much, sometimes on Sundays or for holidays, so it's definitely special when we do. The cozy chair in the corner that we inherited from Chris's parents is perfect for reading and for watching for the arrival of friends out the front window. This simple space really makes our house feel like home.
