We love our current location on The Plateau – being within walking distance to both Beaver Lake and Pine Lake Park is such a great bonus.  And we love our neighbors and all of the fun that they’ve brought to Cameron and Spencer’s lives.  Cameron is always outside playing with the kiddos up and down the street.  But our neighborhood has always felt to us like a stepping stone – our starter house.  It’s a great home with a great layout, but after adding two boys to our family the house doesn’t meet our needs any longer.  We really need a guest room, dining room and a larger play room for the boys.  Also, the yard is too small and too close to our neighbors.  We love our neighbors, but we don’t love hearing all of their conversations while enjoying dinner on our patio 😉

Our current home in Sammamish…not exactly the custom home of our dreams.

So why call this blog Coastal Hues?  Because my dream home would be coastal inspired – light and breezy hues of white, gray and turquoise with neutrals mixed in.  All of that placed in the suburbs of Seattle.
