We moved! part 2

Not only have we been enjoying our new home, but we've had a lot of fun in our new community too!
Because we live in the mason neck region of Lorton, we live close to the Potomac river and luckily have access to this cute little beach in our neighborhood. Lily and Sophie absolutely love spending time here, although they could live without the bugs!



We've also gotten out to Pirate's cove at Pohick regional park a few times, which is just minutes away. While, this isn't exactly what I would call a water park, it is a very cool pool nonetheless and a whole lotta fun:)

and I've finally gotten to buy the girls a little inflatable pool to play in in the backyard. Brings back fun summer memories!

"Lily, sit down right now please!"

"LILY! NOW!!"

"Oh bummer, mom is so mean!"

First, the exterior:

Kitchen (tiny, but big enough for the semi-homemade/5 minute meals that I'm now famous for)

Office/space where we stuck some odds and ends for the time being:)

Downstairs bathroom

Playroom
a few ikea and home depot buys made this room complete



On to the upstairs
Area between the bedrooms and bathroom

Upstairs bathroom

Master bedroom

until we get a dresser this love seat is the storage area for Will's t-shirts, casual pants, hats, etc. . .

Guest room (more furniture pending)

The girl's room
(what you see above Lily's bed is a pre-existing bunk bed, which I turned into a canopy-haha!)


Well there you have it! Stay tuned for more details/updates about our new place coming soon:)
