Slumber Party...

Besides the fact that Matt has to commute an hour to and from work every day, we love our apartment. It's just what a newly married couple needs; master bedroom, bathroom with a clawfoot tub, laundry room, an extra bedroom for storage, kitchen, and gas fireplace. It's perfect!

Nearly.

Since we've moved in, it hasn't quite felt like home. It feels like we're guests in someone else's house--which technically we are (thanks Lori for letting us live in your basement!). So I've been doing my best to make it our own. Pillows for the couch, artwork for the walls, a new shelf for the bedroom. 
And it's almost there!

What's left? 

Painting the bedroom and bathroom. 

And it's gonna be awesome.
(Thank heavens we have a fabulous landlady whose letting us make some changes.)

So, while we were painting, me and Matt migrated our bedroom to the family room. 
And my cute husband surprised me with a fort.

Go ahead. Be jealous.

(We're just putting the finishing touches together on everything, and then I will show pictures. Get excited)

PS. Aren't we the cutest?

8 Months...

8 months ago today I married the man of my dreams. 
Seriously. He's my everything.

My cuddle-buddy. My budget-er. My handyman. My mirror. My dictionary and encyclopedia. My furnace. My calculator. My muscles. My chef. My channel selector. My conscience. My driver. My reminder. My good morning, my goodnight.

He's my reason. My purpose. My motivation. My dreams. My future. My smile.

Mine.

And I love him.
