We just got back from the UK last night and we’re unpacking only to pack up again because next week we’re moving to Los Angeles!
This may seem a bit out of the blue, but we’ve been wanting to move to southern California for years. We decided that it was finally time to make the big move across the country and just make it happen. Kevin’s been traveling to LA about once a month for the past several months for work and it just feels like it’s finally time!
We’re going to be living in a little bungalow in Venice so we’re trying to sell a lot of furniture and other home decor items since we’ll have about half the space we currently have. If you’re local to Orlando, check out my Instagram sale to score a great deal on West Elm furniture and more! We’re going to spend the week packing and hope to hit the road the following week!
Oh and if you live in LA and know of a great barn to board a horse please let me know. I’m on the search for a great barn to board Justin, because yep, he’s going too!
Next week I’ll have some of my favorite bloggers sharing some great DIY projects and recipes right here on Sarah Hearts as we make our way across the country. And if you’ve made a long haul, cross-country move before please share any packing tips! We’ve never done a move this big before (and with a pup in tow too!) so any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry to hear you’re leaving before I got to know another local blog sister?? my hubby’s company is based in LA and and he wishes to move back. Let’s stay in touch anyway And I am definitely going to check out your IG! Best of luck. I know one thing you are not going to miss…. HumidIty.
What a small world! You are absolutely right, I cannot wait for cooler weather and sunshine without the humidity!!
Sorry, no moving tips as I’ve only moved twice in my life, but welcome to LA! I’ve lived here for 45 years! I hope you like sunshine!!
Thanks so much! We cannot wait for sunshine WITHOUT humidity!
Good luck with the move :) Can I have your house in WP? Lol.
lol! Unfortunately we already have renters lined up!
That is not surprising at all Sarah!
Congrats on your move. Southern California is a beautiful place. Check out my pinterest boards. I have lots of packing & moving tips. @pepathomas
Congratulations on the big move! You’re going to love Southern California – and let me know if you’re ever in the Santa Barbara area! As for horses, Ojai is a beautiful place for riding, though it’s a bit out of the way from LA. Best of luck!
