La Costa Brava

Before we moved from Orlando,
I snapped some pictures of our apartment
for the tenants who were moving in.
Though not the best in quality, I love 
looking at these pictures and remembering 
the wonderful times we had here.

Kitchen & Dining Room
(Corbett's ready for dinner!)

Living Room

(can you spot Piper?)

Half Bath & Laundry Room


Guest Bedroom & Corbett's Room



Master Bathroom and Shower



Master Bedroom


Favorite things about this apartment:
- This is where we brought both of our babies home from the hospital
- Having a lake in our backyard
- Having a swimming pool (with a view of a lake) in our backyard
- The closets were HUGE
- The walls were concrete so we never heard our neighbors
- The rafters on the ceiling
- Waking up to the sound of birds chirping
- Two sinks in the bathroom!
- Hosting many friends and family who came to visit
- The ubiquitous little lizards
- Living so close to our friends Josh and Bradie Britt
- The marble countertop with 'party lights'

Least favorite things about this apartment:
- Cockroach sightings
- The uncanny amount of times our light bulbs went out
- The sound of the shower waking Corbett up
- The constant yard maintenance during Corbett's naps
- No designated parking spot
- No recycling
- The management 

Sailor Dress

The last time I was in Utah,
I went through a box of my baby things
and found this dress that my mom
made for me when I was 18 months old.


I couldn't resist recreating the 
picture with Piper, 32 years later. 


It was tough work getting this 
wiggle worm to stay seated for the photo. 
Thankfully, we got ONE good shot 
(which, in the end, is all I needed).

Love that girl and love that grin!
