The New Digs

Wow... tomorrow is February. I successfully spent a month n' a half not blogging... and I'm pretty ok with it. It's been a whirlwind of activity the past 6 weeks and for the most part I haven't even really missed it... which was apparent from the 700 n' some pictures I have to root through. So I figured what better way to start off then by showing you the biggest part of our last couple weeks!

Packin' it all up!


What Jon drove the whole way out!!


So some of you may not know, but our housing was a bit on the messed up side. We originally asked for a 1 bedroom, got a two bedroom, and then were told we needed to stay in a 3 bedroom (at the 2brm price) until May. I was less than impressed, but we went with it and figured that there was a reason. 
So we moved into the 3 bedroom


Our only casualties... our two little bowls from Japan


Jon takin' a break and watching The Office, amidst all the madness




Two days after we moved into the 3 bedroom, we were notified that a 2 bedroom opened up.
We could either move now... or in May. soooooo we moved right away!

Within in a 4 day period we moved all of our stuff... twice.




We did happen to find a sweet table on craigslist!


The mess that is the soon to be office


So inviting looking...

But now it looks a little more like this!
















Whew! It was a bit of a process, but thanks to Mike and Christina (bro and wife) we got it looking like a real home :)

We still have a few more things to acquire, but at the moment we are LOVING our new home :)

Oh and did I mention that we had one week of class already and I'm training for a half marathon in April?? 

Yeah...there's a lot to catch up on :)

Ah! So weird to see "Mike and Jen's" apartment with your stuff in it. I like that I've kind of been in your place before (are the cows still across the parking lot?). Hope you're getting settled in well!

Very cute! I love the set up of the apartment! We had the same thing happen to us when we moved into the apartment that we have now. We had to move into an apartment down the hall and then a week later we had to move everything again. It was hard, especially with the kids!
