The middle of October is an eventful time for our family. The 15th is the day we got married, the day Joseph was born, and the day Grandpa Beck was buried. It will also be the day we move into our first house. We're excited and feel very blessed. Because this home was a short sale, we offered to buy it at the end of May but we only recently received notice of acceptance. We're survivors of the short sale roller coaster!
This house is built on a few acres on the southern end of the Twentynine Palms area basin. It is only a few hundred meters from the border of Joshua Tree National Park (which begins at the mountains you see in the pictures below). If you have never slept under the stars in the desert, you can come to our house and camp out in the backyard. Here's a glimpse of our new place:
