But at our new house, we don't have a deck and our neighbors are very close to ours. I currently do my outfit photos inside my house. I'm a little conscientious about having pictures taken of me outside the house. I may have to get brave and just do it or find a different location. Love the outfits you have here...boots and sweaters are great, but I'm so happy that I'm now back into wearing summery outfits!<br />Ann @ Cairn Cottage (http://cairncottage.blogspot.com/)cairncottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10205290020671696920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-67269265125551617912013-05-17T11:43:16.781-05:002013-05-17T11:43:16.781-05:00I think THEY should introduce themselves to you.

That wasn't really a big deal for us since we had a block party the 2nd day after we moved in!<br />I love your shirt too! :)Himahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00629946497134026988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-79495454495801946352013-05-16T18:33:44.529-05:002013-05-16T18:33:44.529-05:00So happy to see you in shorts and a tee! :) But I ...So happy to see you in shorts and a tee! :) But I love both outfits. <br /><br />We just ended up meeting out neighbors just from being outside.

As for neighbors...we have none where we live now...or at least they are a long way down the road, and I wouldn't recognize them if I saw them...so I guess how you respond probably depends on if you want to know your neighbors or on how close they live to you. I remember one time when I was a kid, my family moved to a new place, and all the neighbors were bringing us food in order to get to meet us. But they were all elderly couples, so they probably came from a different generation of neighborliness.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07894832851934334471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-50885796094821017622013-05-16T09:13:10.516-05:002013-05-16T09:13:10.516-05:00I like that you have a deck and that your outfit p...I like that you have a deck and that your outfit pics can still kind of be the same!

I'm still meeting new neighbors around here. The lady right beside me- I was convinced she was a beast bc she wouldn't wave/talk/nothin' but her husband was really friendly. The other day on my run she fell in beside me and started chatting me up. ha! We are friends now.<br />I can't believe how much your deck looks similar.

We live in an apartment complex, but when we moved in our upstairs neighbor baked us cookies which was nice. Other than that I just say hi to everyone when I see them, which is pretty easy since most of the people have dogs. I hope your neighbors introduce themselves, maybe they just want to give you a little time to settle. If not I say you bake something awesome and show them how nice you are.

Anywho, I believe that the current neighbors should come welcome the new neighbors and introduce themselves, maybe mention that the mailman is a crotchety old fart, don't bother saying hi to him. <br />BUT, I think that if that doesn't happen, it's best to go introduce yourself. Maybe your neighborly attitude will help make them more neighborly in return and then you and all of your neighbors will be be having a block party and sipping on strawberry daquiris before you know it.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04775339340972612762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-25592238355877696372013-05-15T11:21:58.949-05:002013-05-15T11:21:58.949-05:00That is hilarious...the deck + background is almos...That is hilarious...the deck + background is almost identical.

We just randomly met all of them while taking out the trash or something. Which is fine, I'm not really a be-best-friends-with-your-neighbors type of person, anyway. We're friendly, and we take our elderly neighbors' trash down to the street as much as we can and bake everyone cookies at Christmastime, but that's about it.<br /><br />Angihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00394336849612797834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-70339888940027862572013-05-15T09:08:37.055-05:002013-05-15T09:08:37.055-05:00I love that your new deck looks so much like the o...I love that your new deck looks so much like the old one.
