Home Sweet Home

Welcome to our home! Hope you enjoy this little tour of our new digs:)

 The kitchen: this is the most counter and cabinet space I have EVER had!

"My porch": We are able to use this addition all year round, and it has become my little creative space to do crafts, tend my plants, and enjoy my colorful things!

 My little chairs need a make-over...maybe once the weather isn't so sticky.

 A housewarming plant from Tabitha, and a Jenn miniature original

 The dining room: I love the indoor windows looking from this room onto the porch

 The living room: I'd like to do more with this room, but it hasn't spoken to me yet. For now it is pretty cozy and gets a wonderful breeze.

 No, Cuddles is not dead, just hot!

 The Movie Room (James' room): A place for all things movies, and our BIG screen TV...plus a guest room for all you visitors!

 Some pictures I took for James and gave him for his birthday

The bathroom: enough said

Our bedroom: still needs some warming up, but I am loving my new comforter which you are finally getting a look at!

Our individual things came together so nicely in our new space! James and I have a similar sense of style and we like the same colors, so it was fairly easy to make everything work together. We are so happy to finally be together in one place with our little cat. Thanks for taking a peek into our world! Now, come visit!!

All moved in

James and I are officially settled into our new apartment! We spent the entire weekend unpacking, decorating and getting organized. I am very happy with the final result! I've received lots of requests for pictures--I will be taking some when I get home from work and putting up another post either later today or tomorrow. Thanks for all the well-wishes throughout this process!

About this week...

It seems as though it's been much longer than I week since I was here--I don't know how I feel about a week being so long! My absence has been due to a few things. First, and most importantly, I have been packing for our move which started LAST NIGHT! Second, I have not had internet at home since the 4th in preparation for said move. But, back to the important stuff: we are moving!!!

James and I signed the lease on our new place last night and got my stuff pretty much moved over in just two trips. Over the next two days we'll be finishing up at my apartment which, at this point means furniture and clothes, and also moving over as much of James' stuff as possible while we have access to the van my dad is bringing up tomorrow morning.

James has off today, so he'll get a lot of his boxes moved over while I'm at work this morning, and then I'll join him for the afternoon. Tomorrow we are totally blessed by having help from my dad and James' uncle and cousin--they are awesome! With four guys, I'm sure the move will go really well and will definitely save me from straining my back any more than I need to. It will be a crazy few days, but we are so looking forward to being all settled in and enjoying our new place together. Oh, did I mention we'll also be seeing the midnight show of Harry Potter tonight? Tell me, what move is complete without that!?

Check in for updates in the next week or so--pictures included!
