♥ there's no place like home.

on friday, my sister and her husband closed on their first house-

a cozy little colonial, nestled in an adorable neighborhood :)

i was so lucky to be there as my brother in law, beejay,

carried my sister and my niece, gia, over the threshold :) :) 

built in the 1935, the house definitely needs a modern touch,

 a few fresh coats of paint, and a little less 80's wallpaper and carpeting,

but other than that- it's perfect. some of the older features are actually

my favorite. for instance..

this amazing light fixture.

this oven. built into the wall. (so brady bunch!)

this kitty cat light switch. obvi. 

this mirror & the cool stone fireplace behind me.

this window, fit for a tiny person.

this pub lamp & matching roman shades.

 and the best part of the house: 

gia will be there.

ps. two years ago today, they got married.
