We finished painting on Wednesday afternoon (I love it), and Boh and I moved in that evening.
Boh made himself at home immediately. (My mattress is on the floor right now — friends with a pickup truck are going to help me move the wooden base this weekend.)
I snapped this photo of Boh this morning — he got right back into bed after I got up. What sweetness.
Breakfast and coffee on the porch — before I covered the table in piles of finals to grade. (In case there was any confusion, grading is MUCH more pleasant on a porch.)
Another surprise! Boh and I decided to walk out the back door today instead of along the road (which is fairly busy). We scrambled about halfway up the hill in behind the house and discovered a gas line right-of-way, perfect for walking. Boh is a happy dog.
I’ll be posting more regularly now that the internet is hooked up here at the lake house. And I’ll be knitting! I should have a couch to sit on this weekend, and then I’ll be able to finish my stripe study shawl. Happy weekend!

Love, love, love your porch. The retro chrome set in bright yellow is a great touch. Enjoy!
Oh man! Love this post, so much. Good color choices!
Yay!! I also love your porch. I used to have one and I still miss it a lot. That looks like a fabulous place for walks, too. Congrats, you guys!
Beautiful! That porch looks like the best thing ever — and the colors are so cheerful!
I love it! The colors are perfect. Congrats on your new home!
That porch is lovely! Wishing you a perfect summer at the lake!
Absolutely lovely! Nothing better than a porch.
So many windows! That’s fantastic. And the porch… :-)
Love, love, love your new place. I am looking forward to seeing that porch a lot!! Happy Lake House!!
Looks great! The porch looks like such a cheerful place to grade.
It looks fantastic–welcome home!!!!
Congrats on the beautiful new digs, being ABD, and making it through another semester. You are going to have a fabulous summer. :)
First of all, congratulations on finishing and passing your exams!! (I’m sorry I didn’t send my congrats when you actually posted about passing your exams…most of my blog reading has been done on my phone while feeding the baby lately). It must feel wonderful to have those done *and* to be mostly moved into your spectacular new abode! My gosh…the colors are fantastic and that porch!! Looks like heaven if you ask me.
I really love the kitchen picture. Seeing your stuff in there really brings home the, well, home-ness of the new place. :)
Love, love, love that porch!!
Congraulations on your move to the lakehouse! What a great trail to have for walking out your back door.
New wall colours look great, good to see the couch is Boh approved.
Enjoy your new home!
