Moving


As you might remember, we are renting half of a side-by-side duplex. Our neighbor who lives in the other half is moving. We have decided to move into his half of the house. This house used to be a single family home. When they made it a duplex, they turned the garage into the apartment that we currently live in. There are some pros and cons about each side, but overall, I think the move will be good.
Pros for moving: The new place has 3 bedrooms rather than just 2.
There are 2 exterior doors, so I can go out into the side yard with the boys.
Moving means going through things and reorganizing. (Pro and con) :)
No lawn to mow.
Better blinds.
Bigger living room.
Laundry is not in the kitchen anymore!
DISHWASHER!!!!!!!
Cons for moving: Because our apartment was converted from a garage, the walls, doors, everything is newer than the other apartment.
The bathroom isn't quite as modern.
Less cupboard space in the kitchen.
The layout is pretty weird. Kind of like a maze, whereas our current apartment all opens up into the main room.
We have a peach tree in our current backyard. No peach tree in the new one.
The picture above is Tristan watching the neighbor move. He pulled up his camp chair and watched the fun.

Here is another picture of our boat!
