It feels like home...

Alright, I know I've been saying for a while I would post pics of the apartment.  I finally took the time to break out the camera so you guys can get a better idea of Home Sweet Home!  There's a lot of things I'd want to do with decorating, but since this isn't permanent, we'd rather save the money on decorating on a place that's ours! Without further ado, our humble abode:

The front door!  Once you walk in, there's an inside staircase that takes you upstairs to our apartment.

The living room. I can't wait to get rid of our mismatched furniture!

If you take a step away from the living room, you'll see this leads you directly into the dining room.  Hi Christmas tree & Zoe! 

Guest bathroom

Bad picture of the guest bedroom.  Yes, we desperately need a bedskirt. And a headboard/footboard :) 

Our little kitchen. The door next to the clock is the laundry room. Yes, those are sugar cookies cooling because I'm a good little stay at home wifey ;) To be honest, I get bored to death so baking kills the time! 

One side of our bedroom

Our closet was so big we put the dresser inside...holler

Our bathroom.  Yes, it desperately needs more color :)

The other side of our bedroom (closet & BR)

Our apartment building!  Don't be fooled - not everyone in the midwest is nice! Our neighbors are not friendly. Please note Miss Nellie (my car) at the bottom of this pic.  I can't wait to get a job and get rid of her.  Sorry, Miss Nellie!

So, there you have it.  Our Better Homes & Garden apartment isn't so Better Homes & Garden :)  It's definitely built nice, has really nice fixtures, and the apartment workers are by far the nicest & most reliable people we've ever worked with.  However, it's definitely a very small apartment and we don't see ourselves living here for more than a year.  After that, hopefully we'll have a HOUSE!  Zoe wants a backyard to do all of the squirrel and badger hunting she dreams about :)
