This was our little Arlington home.

 		 
  This is our little Arlington home now!


It has been years in the making, but finally we are seeing progress on the house.
 
Mickey grew up in this house with her Mother,
Father, two siblings, and dog.

Mickey sometimes misses the old house, but isn't finding much time to miss the past with all of the painting the new house holds for her presently and in the future.

 

     Someday, there will be double balconies on the front of the house.
However, after the past years of construction, Mickey and Brian
aren't ready to roll right into more construction.  For now this
is what we will have.

one could actually work on the stove).

Dining in the dining room
(our friends brought the table,
the flowers, the meal, everything,
and the most fantastic
dining experience that
we have had in our new home.)
