Welome to Casa Westerling

We've spent the last week and a half unpacking boxes and finding places to put everything, which was not a major chore because we have so much room!!!  Going from 300 sq ft to over 1600 sq ft has been a bit overwhelming.  But it's wonderful to have a place for everything.

Decorating has been an absolute joy.  I've always loved southwestern decor and to have this beautiful house as a backdrop makes it even more fun.  Dave and joke about losing weight because we have so much more room to walk in.

We were fortunate that Susan and Peter, the sellers, didn't need most of their furniture as they started their new journey in Vermont, so we've only bought a few pieces to round out the wonderful things we were already gifted.

We're still missing quite a bit of wall art, and that will come slowly, I'm sure.  We'll know when we find pieces that go into a specific place.

In the meantime, enjoy these pictures and we welcome and suggestions or feedback!

A new life - in Old Town

As we prepare to start our new life in our new house in a couple of days, some of us spent the day working and some of us played hooky.

We spent the day at the new house with Susan and Peter.  Dave and Peter put up the side fence, and Susan and I went to some antique shops and headed back to Old Town for another shopping trip. 

We first stopped at the Church of Immaculate Conception in Bosque Farms.  What an absolutely beautiful old church that was remodelled beautifully.
​

We were pleasantly surprised to find a fiesta going on at the Plaza for the Feast of the Church of San Felipe.  We enjoyed a really good hamburger, great music and magical dancing troupes.

This is a part of what I love about our new home.  There are Fiestas, and other celebrations going on every week.

    In May, 2019, we fell in love with Albuquerque and the Land of Enchantment.  We moved into the house of our dreams and will share our misadventures with home ownership!

    ​We'll also share the beauty of this area as we get to know our adopted home.
