Ohh, can I just say how wonderful it is to be out of our apartment and into our new house!!! Let me just take you on a small tour of the apartment that we lived in. We have already moved out so there is no furniture in the apartment in these pictures.
Entry way stairs that went up into our apartment. We lived on the 2nd floor
Tiny pantry in the kitchen. Looking at the pantry- to the right is the laundry hole and to the left is a storage closet
Kitchen- that is all the countertop I had to work with. It was impossible for me to cook while Derrick did the dishes!
there is our one person bathroom. The shower was to the left in the bathroom. The mornings when Derrick and I had to leave at the same time were quite fun. I couldn't brush my teeth without being in the way of the shower, toilet, and closet! Ohh- fun times!
that is the bedroom door at the top of the stairs. We had already moved out taken all of our lamps and the bedroom didn't have any lights so I couldn't get a picture of the bedroom.
This is the living room and back door to the deck. I am grateful that we had somewhere to live and a roof over my head, but it makes me appreciate what we had before we moved and what all we have now. God is good and He has taken care of us and provided for us since we have been in Ohio. We moved into our new house on January 19th and I was so excited and surprised when 12 people from our Sunday school class showed up that Saturday morning to help us move. It was the coldest day of the year and they were such troopers. My brother also came up from TN to help. We didn't put any holes in the walls at the new house, but the apartment is a different story! They had a hard time getting our couch down the stairs and out the door so they ended up lowering it over the deck to a couple of guys waiting below. It was a good idea! They were a HUGE help and we apprecite them all so much. I am so mad that I didn't get my camera out and take pictures of everyone moving.
We had the house painted before we moved in and my parents came up the weekend we moved in and they helped us unpack and mom helped me decorate. They were a huge help and we are so grateful that they were willing to come help.

So glad you posted pictures. We moved in New Year's weekend. Our house was larger than your apartment, but we also had three people and dog living there, so we needed more space too. Glad you are doing well. The house looks great.
Hey Rebecca and Derrick!!! House looks great- know you are tickled to be there. Love the master shower!
