Our Townhouse

We're all settled in, and talking about moving again. But for now here is our little house. There is also a half bath downtairs which I forgot to take a picture of, but it's nothing special. It looks like a mini version of the big bathroom upstairs but it's just one room.

Pros of the townhouse: huge upstairs bathroom, close to Fort Hood, quick to clean because it is very tiny, our stuff fits just fine even if there isn't a lot of room left over, our tiny TV doesn't look so tiny in the small living room, there are 2 large windows at the perfect height for Penny to gaze outside for hours, we've made some friends who take their kids to the playground in the apartment courtyard, it is relatively inexpensive!

Cons of the townhouse: the stretch of highway between Copperas Cove (where we are) and post is very well traveled so there is a lot of traffic which makes for a long commute, the management company that owns this apartment complex is not very nice, we've aready had quite a very maintenance issues including a leaking air conditioner (I don't mean a little leak I mean like water all over the downstairs living room) and me getting locked out of the apartment while Penny is inside by the sliding glass door just staring at me, I don't feel super safe going out at night alone unless it's just to my car, we would like just a little more space, and Penny NEEDS A
BACKYARD!

Downstairs is all hard wood type flooring and the upstairs is carpeted except for the bathroom. We park just behind our "backyard" and enter our house through the kitchen. There is a huge grassy courtyard through the front door, which Penny is very happy about!


"backyard"- Penny is so sad!


our own little recycling center in our "backyard"

entry from front door- not a lot of room! We never come in this way because we park our cars on the opposite side of our house.

upstairs bathroom- not the photo color isn't strange the lighting makes it look yellow in there!


living room No piano= Connie very sad

living room- the dining room and living room are actually the same room but we divided it into two areas

breakfast nook but we never eat here because it's a little tight and Penny's food/water bowls block the front section
