Settling in.

We are all moved in!  Mostly.  There are still a few unpacked boxes floating around and random items that need to find homes, but for the most part our new place is starting to look like a home!  So please pardon some of the mess, but here is a photo tour of our new home!



This is the view when you walk in the front door.  You can see right out the slider onto our deck and our huge backyard. 


This is the living room from near the slider.  The slider is on the right and the front door is to the left. (The cushions behind the couch are for our deck chairs, and yes I was watching Friends.)


Here is our living room art wall along with our new foosball table (The hubs' early Christmas present from his parents).



This is the hallway that was on the left edge of that last picture.  It leads to our bathroom (on the left), bedroom (at the end) and back door (on the right).


This is our bathroom, it looks very yellow-orange in this picture.  It's not always like that.


We have a washer and dryer in our bathroom! (the dryer is behind the door).  So much nicer than the community laundry room in the basement of our last apartment building! (Notice Hubs "decorated" the washer).



This is our bedroom, a little cluttered, but notice that it is an actual room, with a door and everything!  A big step up from our tiny studio apartment!  (And yes that is our inflate-a-bed, we will get a real bed eventually)



This is the view of the living room when exiting that back hallway.


And here is the kitchen as seen from the living room.  The kitchen makes our dining table look small.  Or maybe our small table makes the kitchen look big, that may be the right answer.


This is the view standing on the other side of the kitchen, in the doorway of the "craft room".



And this is the second bedroom that we are lovingly referring to as the craft room.  This is where my sewing machine and all of my knitting, art, and scrap booking supplies live.  It is also where the keyboard is set up for the hubs to practice music for school.  This is the room where you can really tell that we are still unpacking.  There are a few boxes straggling in here.


All in all we are pretty settled in!  Just in time because Hubs starts school on Monday.  We are very excited about our new space and excited about Hubs' new job.  I'm still on the job hunt, which might be one of my least favorite things ever.  But hopefully soon I will find just the perfect thing and figure out where I am meant to be! 

Thanks for touring with me!

With love.

  1. 1. So homey looking! I can't wait to come visit.
    2. So big!
    3. Love your art wall!
    4. What is your bed resting on? It looks like 1 cardboard box in the middle, which seems like a really unsteady plan.
    5. Your craft room has school style built in shelves? Holy perfect for craft storage, Batman! But who would put those in a bedroom?

  2. It's our inflate-a-bed, so it has it's own legs that you can't see because the comforter is covering them. Don't even worry, the box is just there because it needs to be unpacked. We are hoping to get a real bed soon-ish.

    And we put those shelves there. They belong to the in-laws. We thought they would be awesome in there, but crazy pain in the butt getting them there, they might never move again. lol.
