We live here...

TJ's always saying we should post pictures of our apartment, so everyone can see where we live. So, this is it. This is home.

A 2 bedroom, 1 bath, never-hot-water, sometimes-electricity, upstairs apartment. It's surrounded by a lovely garden, and we enjoy sitting on our porch, listening to the sweet sounds of motos driving by...


Our living room, often full of kiddos.


Our bedroom, often full of Dominican disco music.


Our porch, often full of towels drying in the sun.


Our kitchen, incidentally, the biggest one we've ever had.



Our bathroom, often full of foul smells from the sewer. (Sorry, but there's something wrong with the septic tank & we can't figure out how to get rid of the smells! We welcome any suggestions.)


Our courtyard, often full of kids, cherries, or leaves from the almond tree.

I love, love, love your curtains! I can't wait to see them in person... Only 3 weeks from today!

I was going to comment about the lovely curtains even before TJ said anything. They are so pretty and turned out great.

They are beautiful curtains. Well done. And, the pic's make us feel like we're there - wish we could be.

As for the sewer, try bleach. We have to put chlorine tablets in our septic system to ensure there aren't any odors.

Love your place! I always knew Holly had a natural talent for making small places beautiful.
Is there room for an air mattress on the floor?

Love, love, love your pad! Those curtains are truly amazing, I must add! It looks like you have a beautiful home away from home!
