LIfe in The Burg

Well, here we are! we made it, Jace and I have our cute little appartment, and we are happy as happy can be here together. When at first we arrived at our little house we had nothing, we had our clothes, our wedding gifts, and for the first little while our apprtment just looked like a storage unit to put all of our stuff.
 The previous renters painted our walls the kitchen is white and the walls in the living room are a toupe colour except for the wall with the window which is painted red. when we first arived the first thing that you see as you walk in the door is the bright red wall and it looked like ketchup. I thought it was the ugliest colour in the world... Well, Jace is a sweetheart, and the very next day the first thing that he did was put up pictures on the walls to make it look more like a home. I was very pleased with the way it turned out, it still looked empty because we didnt really have any furniture we had one little chair, and thats all. Jace wanted so badly to make our house a home, so every night he got on and checked craigs list and the bulletin board to see if there was any furniture on sale for cheep. luckilly we found a couch online for $30 and it is a pull out couch as well, we bought it for $25 the people who were getting rid of it were moving and couldnt haul it so we got it for cheep, the only problem was trying to get it out of their appartment and then into ours.
 we got three big guys who were great and all thoes boys worked together and put their brains together to figure out how to get that couch out and in. Getting to couch into our appartment ended up being such a pain, we had to take off the door, and turn it up on one end angle  it slightly and twist it a little here and there, and finaly, we made it into the house. it fit so perfect into our little living room, right up against the wall. 
 We now have a sweet little table and four little chairs our house is definatley more of a home now that we are in it than it was when we were first here, its nice just to come home and know that I dont hae to deal with roommates who are messy, or loud, or any of that, I just have to worry about Jace, and he isnt that bad because he also likes to keep things pretty tidy.
 We are excited for this weekend, Christina is getting married to her sweet heart Patrick Foote. they are such a sweet couple, I am so excited for them, it will be fun to be back in Canada even if is just for the weekend, I am still excited and I think Jace is too, he is just dreading the eight hour drive, but it will be ok, we get to spend 16 hours in the car together, and keep eachother awake.

but thats all for now folks!
I guess you will have to wait till next time to hear more,
I will ttry and take some pictures of our little appartment so ya`ll can see our cute little place!
