Happy Halloween!

We are being total losers this year and just chilling in our apartment, but I wanted to share my 'costume' I thought up today. I can't believe I've never done it before. It's to perfect!
 Cousin It says "hello!"
The only other Halloween goodness I have for you is this puzzle Zack and I put together.
"House of Seven Gables"
Happy Halloween!

New Apartment

I still have some back-tracking to do with my posts, but I will trudge on until I get to them. Today I bring you our new apartment! 
 We are still couchless :p


 I've had terrible luck nabbing a dining set from Craigslist or a second hand store. I'm wanting one with extra chairs for the lonely desk and sewing table in the living room. Then I am hoping to get this red cabinet from Target to use as a buffet table/credenza/sideboard/whatever you like to call it.

Dining room update! 


 The area past the kitchen with the window is the laundry room. We don't have a washer and dryer yet, but Zack has put up some shelves in there for storage. I'm lucky I married such a handy man!
 Another project where I'm so happy to have Zack around for. He did a wonderful job of putting up these peg boards for my pots and pans.

 I wish I'd hung these frames a little higher, but they are up and I am so not moving them again. ha I feel like it's very plain looking though, so I'm holding out hopes Z will buy a mantel for me like this (in black).




 These curtains have saved our lives! Seriously. They keep the bedroom cool and dark. The first couple weeks with just blinds were so hot and bright I could hardly sleep.


 My computer is still not hooked up and Z is using my desk to put together a new server. It's the one mess I'll allow you to see (I may or may not have hid other messes to take these pictures). :)

Well there you have it! Things are slowly coming together and everything has been unpacked! Life in Texas is definitely a little different than it is anywhere else, but that's another post for another day.
