New Apartment!


Well, I haven't been posting much on the blog lately, and the main reason for that is because we unexpectedly had to move this last month! The owners of our apartment were coming back unexpectedly from their overseas assignment, which gave us about two months to find a new place. Fortunately, we found one and were able to finish moving in over this last week. Now those of you who have seen our apartment may wonder why it looks exactly the same as the last one. We actually stayed in the same building, and moved from the third floor to the first floor. There have been some downsides (moving costs, crappy parking spot, etc.), but the new place has some definite upsides as well (we were allowed to paint, nicer appliances, fireplace). So overall we're pretty happy, especially now that I'm finally done hanging everything up.


Our living room is unfortunately a little bit smaller with the addition of the fireplace, but we were still able to make everything fit, and we're pretty happy with the outcome.


The bedroom looks about the same, except that there's a new coat of paint. We're excited to be able to stay in the same neighborhood and in the same ward, and I feel like we were really fortunate that this new place opened up in our building right as we were getting kicked out.

It looks fantastic Sarah. I love your decorating. What color did you use on the walls in the living room? Miss you guys lots by the way!

I bet you're so glad you got to stay in the same ward. We sure miss it!

Your apartment looks so cute. You two sure are classy!

Thanks! Glad you all like the new place. The color Sarah picked out for the living room was Cape May Cobblestone by Benjamin Moore. Apparently, gray is the new white, or so I've been told (mostly be Sarah).

Congrats on the new digs!
Looks great!
...but I didn't hear mention of a spacious guest wing?

P.S. Thanks for not inviting us to your painting party!
