FINALLY!

Isn't it great when you can FINALLY move into your new home? Well tomorrow we are officially lease owners to a great apartment that will make us feel completely at home, well that is once we purchase all of our new furniture, which is an adventure in itself! :) So here is our NEW floor plan:

Yes, I know, I have way too much time on my hands to take a generic layout and place my desired furniture color combinations. BUT It was a lot of fun! Feels good to see it on paper, or screen. We believe we have narrowed down our search to 3 furniture stores. THREE! UGH! Is furniture shopping always such a hassle. I enjoyed sitting on different fabrics, textures furniture, but after a few times, you forget what all the other sofa, love seat, chairs, chaise felt like. And I am completely daunted to try and not make the wrong choice.

By the way, Josh and my preference on style, color, and texture could not be further apart! It is kind of fun, in a way. Getting to imagine each set in our new apartment! After all, we will be using these for a LONG time.

So onto other things. My beautiful SIL asked for some details on our new place, so here it goes...

They are gorgeous, pics to come soon. We are on the third floor, THIRD! So many stairs... Makes me think I will be texting the hubs on grocery lists and having him pick things up from the comm after work. :) Shhh don't tell him.

There is a gorgeous resort style pool, with a large sun deck, with some arbors with swinging seats that look as if they fit two adults. There are two grills on the BBQ island. A "lake" really a pond right outside our balcony, with a fountain.

The apartments have a full gym, a tanning bed, billiard/entertainment room (that has NFL RedZone, DVD's, cable, etc.), a dog walk area, a business center (free internet use, fax machine, photo copier, blah blah blah.....

Only down side is we pay for all utilities, water, trash, electricity, and any other options we choose to have.

So we will be moving all of our stuff there and organizing this weekend. Monday, we will have our HHG's delivered. Can't wait to lay lay down on my OWN bed, in our OWN room! :)
