Don't even bother taking off your shoes...welcome to The Hauser's house! Over the past few days a group of bloggers have been chatting on Twitter about giving tours of their homes. I thought it was such a fun idea, but as usual, was going to sit back and let the lurking begin. I changed my mind....I want to play!
We won't be living here much longer, and I thought it would be nice to catalog some pictures of the house Nathan was brought home to....all 1100 square feet of it. We bought our home in 2004. We were young, excited, newly engaged and had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. Fast forward to now....we are stuck in a sinking California housing market with an 8 month old in our bedroom because it's the only bedroom we have!
We do love this place though.... the natural lighting, the cool floor plan, the high ceilings, the fantastic neighborhood and of course all of our friends that live close by. However, we have really never settled in knowing it was no where close to being our "forever home". The walls are white (gasp!) and the furniture is still a mix match of things we gathered and combined during our dating years. Considering what I do for a living I should be embarassed...but I'm not. It's been our home, it's been a good home, and I will be sad when it's time to say goodbye.

Hey mama! This is my first visit to your blog- but I love your place & we are in the same boat over here! One bedroom (+plus loft) that we bought right before everything in California took a dive. We are also stuck!! I've got THREE kids- the oldest is almost 15 months. So, it can be done. We love our little place but can't wait till things turn around!! PS- You've got great style!

I love it! Like. Yeah. I really love it!! :)
I love it! You have wonderful style
Your living room is awesome - I love the bold red couch and the rug!
Wow, your sense of style is amazing. The white walls/light colors/black/red combos work so well.
I love your style! We are in a similar situation... we've outgrown our house! I really can't wait to move to a bigger house.
Anyway, thanks for the tour :)

I LOVE your place!!! I'm a decorator (I assume you are a designer? GORGEOUS portfolio btw) so I understand 100% what you mean when you say "Considering what I do for a living I should be embarrassed...but I'm not." I feel exactly the same way. But I <3 my home too - and I <3 this home tour idea cuz I get to see (and gain inspiration from) such stunning homes!
It doesn't look like a mix match of things at all! Really beautiful!
