Over the weekend Zack + I found our apartment. And we moved in. And we are sooooooo happy! Friday was the 7th and all good things seem to happen to us on or around the 7th… after all it is the day we were married (in June).

I’m beyond excited to finish unpacking, get my new studio/office set up, and of course share it with you all. Thank you again — really, really, for all the prayers. This is going to be an amazing home for bringing our baby home in March.

In the meantime I’ll be making this apartment our home sweet home :)

xoxo

    Congratulations I’m happy dancing in Ohio for you. I lived in Southern California for 7 years and LOVED each and everyday of it. The Ocean , the Mountains and of course the SUN every where you look such beauty.

    I bet you have your entire studio finished in no time. Also with loads of the best consignment shops it will be easy to furnish.

    Congrats!!! There’s nothing like landing right where you belong. Praying things continue to fall into place for you and your growing family! (p.s. my daughter was born June 7! It is indeed a good day!)

      @Susan, I think he is really happy to not be in the Jeep. Last night when we got home and made our new bed he jumped right up and fell asleep ;D

    Yay! Glad it finally worked out. Apt/house hunting can be so discouraging but it usually works out…eventually :).

    Hooray for an apartment! I’m sure it’s too late for this advice, but for anyone else reading comments my parents gave me the best during my move (two weeks ago!)
    Dad: Set up the bed first and make it. You want to be able to go to sleep whenever you decided to quit for the day.
    Mom: Set up the TV last. You’ll be more productive.

    Congrats on your new home!

      @Kasey M., Yup, that’s exactly what we did first, and we don’t have a TV so… ;D Super great tips!

    I almost MET Kevin. He was spesoupd to come to Bermuda for a celebrity golf tournament and I was assigned his personal driver (WOOT! Hercules in MY CAR!!). Alas, he pulled out at the very last minute due to some shoulder injury so I got stuck with Dan Cortese instead. (And by ‘stuck’, I mean drooled-over-his-hot-ass-and-killer-smile instead of watching the road *g*)Oh, my vote! Sorry, I got sidetracked…KEVIN.
