The big move!


The move is finally done, and we are out of our dungeon!!!  The move went really well, besides the fact that it decided to snow & rain the one day we decided to move!  Luckily we had both Tyler and Brady  to help us move, so it went pretty fast.


Here are our new couches!!  They are even better than we thought they would be.  They are  so comfortable and in really good condition.   We also got a free washer & dryer set from my brother, which helped us out a lot.  


We figured we needed to have one last celebration in our old place.  So, Brady bought some pizzas to celebrate the move.  Everyone always says that your sad when you leave your first home that you lived in together, but so far I have not missed it AT ALL.  Our new place feels more like home, and we don't have guys above us being rude anymore. 

Here is our new kitchen, with counter and cabinet space, and a bar to put our stools.  Oh yeah and we have a dish washer now, so no more stacked up dishes waiting for us to clean them!  

We have stairs!!

Our big and very spacious bedroom.  I havn't had any time to decorate yet, so it will all look better once i do that.
This is our guest bedroom, mostly just my sewing room right now.   Yes, my mom just bought me a new sewing machine!! I'm very excited about it and I have lots of projects lined up for me.  Including 4 sets of curtains, and a new church skirt (which I've already started, in the picture below).  
We do have a nice Aero bed so if anyone wants to come visit we have a place for you to sleep.


Also, Ryan and I both got jobs at Olive Garden here in Logan.  Ryan is a server and I am a host, it's been a lot of fun so far. The servers make a boat load of money because it's one out of 2 restaurant's in logan, and it's always busy.  Ryan's first table that he served, He spilt 2 alcoholic drinks over the girl.  I guess they had never learned how to deal with the trays when they become imbalanced.   I was really nervous for him when i found out, but in the end they tipped him $15 and then the table next to them gave him $20 because they felt bad for him.  I think he should keep doing that to all of his tables.  

Anyways, Life is good... and we are so happy that everything is working out for us.  We would love visitors so come and visit any time you can!

Yeah for the pictures of your cute apartments! I guess this means you have internet service in your apartment now. I really love your new place and your new furniture is really great! That is so cool that you are making a skirt and curtains. You are very ambitious and talented. I'm glad you like your jobs and that you are both happy and that everything is going well for you. We will be happy to be visitors in June!

Love,
Susan/Mom

Congrats on the new place, we'll have to stop by and see it when we come to Logan, or at least order some alchohol from Ryan at Olive Garden.

Your place looks wonderful. How fun for you. The couch set is great too. It's nice that you both found jobs at the same place. Do you have the same shift. At least your hubby is getting good tips even though he had a mishap.
