View From the Front Door Meme

By ScoutJ | Posted in Memelicious |

Cara had this meme in her blog today and since I didn’t get a lick of knitting done yesterday I thought I’d play. We have a side door instead of a true front door, so I did it a little bit differently. First I give you the view to the right as you walk out of my front door. You can see the walkway from the front of our house.

To the left, you see our backyard. I love our backyard. we have no grass and love how there is the zero maintenance factor. No mowing grass = more time to knit! Right?

I wanted to share these next few pictures because it’s what made us fall in love with this model when we first came looking at houses in Albuquerque 2 years ago. I love the immediate openness you feel as soon as you walk through the door.

Front door

No one wears shoes in our house!

Click to see my knitting spot a bit better. Remember that meme I started?? You can still play if you haven’t already! I loved seeing where everyone gets crafty.

And Supergirl looked so damn cute today you had to see what she’s wearing to school. She has decided that she will wear her Crocs every day from now on with no socks. Ommmmmmm. Pick your battles……Ommmmmmmmmmm.

Now I get to go to the OB! I can’t wait. At least I’ll get some knitting done. Also, I tag anyone else who has the time and desire to do this meme. No pressure. Unless I come to your blog and tag you personally. *insert evil laugh*

    Everything looks so open and airy. I love that it’s so different from New England where I am.

    Ah… I love Southwestern houses. Thanks for sharing! Hi, Supergirl!! I bet hand knitted socks would look super cute in your little Crocs. :)

    I wish I could get my husband to stop wearing his shoes in the house.

    I love your house– soooooo different from the ones you see here in Michigan! My back yard is all brown grass and bare trees right now (it’s been fairly snowless for most of the winter this year.)

    Such an open welcoming space, love it! Also, so “adult”, my place is a holdover from college days. ;)

    Your house is so pretty! I love the simple colors and the clean lines - and so open! And I love the backyard. We have a huge backyard that normally I love, but right now is a mud pit. When are you having a blogger sleepover? :)
