Our family spent 7 incredible years in Southern California during my childhood, so once all of the kids graduated from high school (in Brussels!) my parents were ready to move out of gray, rainy Belgium and back to beautiful, sunny California. This was the home we lived in right before we moved away to Belgium, and therefore was also the home we came back to spend summers at every year.
Although it has undergone 2 renovations since we originally moved in, this place is home to many wonderful memories. It's where we celebrated so many of our birthdays, where we brought together so many of our friends from afar, and where we always come together as a family.
