In addition to staking claim as "One of the Best People Natalie's Ever Met," she also has a killer house. I love visiting. While she's been away for the summer, I've taken a few "staycations" there. And since I just got back from another weekend visit, I thought I might put together a few things that I just love about her pad.
When you walk halfway up her block, you can see the ocean. Rad.
When you walk another two blocks, you're there.
#2 People Love to Join in the Visit
Our great friends joined us for the weekend.
#3 The Kitchen
There is an amazing butcher block island, great appliances, and beautiful cabinets.
Plus, everybody can be milling around and it doesn't feel crowded.
#4 Books on Every Nightstand
This is the ultimate in thoughtfulness. Just in case you forget your bedtime reading material (like I did just this weekend!), you don't need to worry. You've got plenty of options. Sometimes, however, one book shows up twice on the same stand. I guess they really liked "Life of Pi." I know I did. Just not that much.
More books...and toys...and sippy cups...and wonderful light.
...or lots of small things, like puzzle pieces. There are fun things to do there.
#7 We Can Walk to Fun Places for Kids
This park is less than a block away. Seriously. Two minutes. We're there.
The pier is a 10 minute walk.
#8 It's Much Fancier Than My House
She has fancy bath stuff and a cool rack to go across the might-as-well-be-clawfoot porcelain tub.
#9 I Can Truly Relax
(Please don't get grossed out by the nastiness of my flaking nail polish.)
#10 My Sister and Her Beautiful Family Lives There
(most of the time)
They are wonderful and I love them!
I loveee this post it makes me want to pack up and move. Hmm. Perhaps I will. Since we both have the same name maybe I can fill in for you and go stay with your sister. I doubt she'd notice :-P J.kidding..
ReplyDeletebut srsly. your name ROCKS :]
Awwww, this post makes me miss home! So sweet. The Life of Pi comment made me laugh...not sure how we ended up with two of those. The only thing missing is a photo of the homage to Twilight on my desk. And I see you haven't found the lifesize cardboard replica of Edward that I place in the corner of my room when Kevin's out of town....
