I just got back from Austin, after staying at this special home with great friends. (Actually, they also happen to be the greatest skee-ball players on the planet. No big deal. Hee.) To just call this home special is an understatement, this is the most extra positive home I've ever set foot in.

I didn't meet Justin&Becca in person and only spoke briefly with Justin on the phone, but I feel like I know them. The love and creativity they have poured into this house is contagious and it is magical. We descended upon Austin to let the good times roll at a nearby venue, where skee-ball, circus and festival carried on for three perfect days. While we did not spend much time at the house during the days – the mornings and the nights were magnificent.

Making your way down the wide hallway feels like walking inside a giant hollow oak tree. The bedrooms are perky, they should be on the cover of Pattern Magazine if that exists. Sleeping in the loft is like sleeping on a bed of cotton candy that is floating in the air. The kitchen, you had me at breakfast nook, delightful. And lastly, I hereby declare, from this day forward, the backyard will be called Extra Positive Land. There are hula hoops and a happy hut. There is an endless table with light bulbs above it that hang like stars. This backyard is friendship inside of a fence.

We came to Austin knowing we were going to have the best time of all times. We did not know that we would stay at the best home of all homes, casa of all casas, pad of all pads. You can say it worked out!

Without a doubt, we'll be back.

Love,
The best skee-ball players on the planet
