Hey there! We’re Alan and Laryssa, and in January 2019, we bought our first house together: The Beck Street House. Our 2,200 square-foot house is filled with character and charm and, when we moved in, a plethora of ducks. We’re starting this website as a place to share our adventures [and occasional misadventures] in homeownership, DIY, and life in a small town. 

Alan is a teacher at a local school, and Laryssa is a freelance graphic designer. We’re passionate about camping, fixing up our house, taking walks with our dog, beef and noodles, agriculture, and more.

Thanks for joining us on this journey!
