The New Apartment (with pictures)

Since we've moved into our little our apartment, we have been busy trying to make it look like a little house and not like some sort of storage locker. I think we've done pretty well so far. We have everything out of boxes and things are put away now. We can even find our basic stuff like food, games, and clothes. This is what it looked like before we decorated or moved in or anything.

Here is our finished living room. We decided that it would be fun for it to look coordinated so we have blue curtains and blue blankets and stuff. We also decided to use one of our book cases to put our games on so that they are easy to get to and see. The picture under this is just another shot of the living room so that you can see all of Daniel's hard work putting up the pictures

more living room with pictures!

Well, Daniel says that he doesn't want to take credit for all the work he did putting up the pictures and dealing with me as I made him move pictures back and forth several times. So, I guess this is me not giving him any credit for the time he put in. If he asks, just say that you heard that it took ten minutes or so and that it wasn't that difficult. Or better, say, I heard you didn't do anything at all; isn't that why you are sitting on the couch in that picture?

This is our game bookcase. Don't be offended if your favorite game isn't on the shelf. There are some hiding on the bottom shelf you can't see, and we will probably get more in the future. We even got a new game, Carcassonne; it is pretty fun. This is a closer up picture of our little picture section too, in case you were wondering.

Well, this is the break between our dining room and our living room. Basically they are the same room, but we decide to split them up with the couch and then decided to make them different colors so you can tell the difference -- the dining room is yellow and the living room is blue.

This is the dining room with our table, our pineapple and our front door. Oh, and to the left there is a water heater and past that the washer and dryer. You know, it's an all service dining room --eat a snack and clean the stains off of your clothes when you are done.

This is our bedroom which is pretty self explanatory.

We put up pictures on the wall, and then we made our bed. We even hung curtains for this pictures so you wouldn't think we live in squaller or anything.

What you can't see in this picture is the closet (which has two doors, but is one big closet), our dresser, and our table of random stuff.

 We are also having lots of fun getting to know the area and our new ward. It has been good so far, but it has been warm! We helped at the bishop's storehouse and have gone on several walks.

So, we are out for now! Just thought we'd give you a glimpse of our new apartment.
