It's not usual for people to say that they actually like or get along with their neighbors. In the kind of neighborhood we live in, where our complex is constantly vandalized, cars are broken into, and gun shots pop off in the middle of the night, it's hard to let your guard down. In the past 3 years of living here, we haven't made friends with any of our neighbors until this past year. There's always the random folks you always see every morning walking their dog or heading out to work. It's usually nothing more than an acknowledgement and a friendly gesture but there's always those people that you instantly click with. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't ALL about their tattoos that caught my attention but the comforting casual conversation that wasn't superficial.
Slowly our neighbors came in and out and it came to the point where we started enjoying living in the complex surrounded by good neighbors and it felt like home. Thanks to Rich and Elisa and a few other good neighbors who also just recently moved on, we were able to finally feel like we were at home.
Now with a new life coming into their lives, it's in their best interest to move on to another chapter.
Here's some shots from our maternity shoot.
