Welcome to Our New Home!

Here' s the home tour for our new apartment. Try not to judge too much, i haven't unpacked everything or hung anything up yet. Someday when you come to visit us, you will be amazed at the awesomeness of the decorating :)



This is out living room as seen from the kitchen. The door in the back is technically supposed to be our front door, but the way the apartment building is set up has people coming in through our kitchen. The laptop is set up as our TV at the moment. Cable is so expensive, we're experimenting with not having regular tv.






This is our laundry area and my pride and joy Washer and Dryer. I've run several loads and it's been a dream come true. The cabinets above are super great too because it holds all our laundry and cleaning supplies









Here is our fabulous pantry. Now we have a place to put all our weird kitchen appliances like the food processor and pop corn maker that were cluttering up our counter at our last place. There's also room for the food storage- it's out of the way but easy to access :)








This is the kitchen. We've got lots of cupboards and and drawers, but out fridge is a little old school. As in it needs to be defrosted every so often because ice builds up. Oh goody, i can hardly wait to do it.




This is our master bedroom. We got creative with our "dresser" and used two cheap-o bookshelves with baskets to hold all out non-hang up clothes. So basically we got a 6 drawer dresser for $50 which was a better price than actual dressers at the D.I.





The closets here are huge compared to our last place. I finally have a place for my shoes other than in a big 'ol pile on the floor.







And finally here is our second bedroom. You probably can't tell, but I've actually put some of this stuff away. Once it all gets put away, thrown away or set aside for a yard sale, this will be our craft/computer/guest room. I'm hoping this will become a reality by April - here's hoping :)


We have a bathroom too, but it's not super photogenic. We did make an upgrade to the shower though. We have really low water pressure and it kind of just dribbled on our heads, so we installed a low flow head like they have in hotels and now the water shoots all the way to the back of the shower :)



Come and visit us some day, but call first so i can get things tidied up! We can play dance dance revolution untill our ankles fall off :)

you need to put an address on so we know when to just stop by. ( without calling)

I didn't know your kitchen door was supposed to be the front door. WEIRD.

btw I love those brown boots. Have I seen those?

YAY! When Pete and I had a two bedroom we called the second the "Pooh" room, where we put all our crap. It later became the "Winnie the Pooh" room, a nursery for our son.

We totally don't have TV at all. (We own an actual television, on which the kids watch movies. But no cable connection.) We just download all the shows that we like to watch. Bada bing.

I'm so excited for you. It looks nice. I envy your kitchen. You won't miss t.v. too much. If you have internet, you'll be fine. Although, I have missed American Idol this season. Oh, well.
