Way overdue

I've been meaning to post about what we've been up to the past few months but just haven't had the time. (More like I just didn't feel like it) I'm usually gone 11 hours every day during weekdays and our weekends have been packed full of family activities or just enjoying some free time together. David is getting closer to finals and he has been gone a lot for group projects work. I miss him but I'm glad he loves what he's doing.

I'm really enjoying my job. I work with some fun people who always make life entertaining—even when we're in the middle of press week. I just found out that the Melaleuca magazine has a circulation of 275,000!! That's incredible. That's how many people read my work. Pretty cool, huh? :-)

So, the past few months we...

Decorated our new apartment. (Here are the pictures I promised you, Kimberly)

Our Kitchen—part of it at least. Laurie was nice enough to give us her dining set and we love it. It's perfect for our cozy little apartment. Thanks Laurie!


Bathroom. We have a huge vanity that I absolutely love. And we also have our own washer/dryer room. It's so nice not having to go to a laundromat or waiting till we visit our parents.

Our front room. David loves our recliner. It's way comfortable and just what every man needs.

We love our retro couch from my grandma. It's awesome and totally works in our apartment.

This, by far, is our favorite room. Our media room. Yes, that is a 27" imac—David's present for getting a full-tuition scholarship this semester. It's bigger than our tv so we just put our tv in the closet and use this. It's awesome. And, as we all know, every true media room has to have a love sac. We spend most of our time in this room watching movies, working on projects, or just hanging out. We love our new apartment. And, for those of you who saw our last apartment, it's definitely an upgrade from our last one. :-)

Looks good Chanae. I love the couch. Is that from Grandma's downstairs?

Chanae said...

Yup! :-) The recliner and washer and dryer are from there too. It's just furniture no one really wanted but we were thrilled to get. It helps us remember grandma—kind of a last gift from her. We really appreciate it.

You are awesome, Chanae. I'm so glad you are my daughter-in-law!!

Thanks so much! I am still sad we didn't make it out there to see it in person. Maybe this summer though.
