the apartment

Okay, so here are some pics and such from our apartment. It's a nice (compared to what we were living in in Provo, not necessarily for this area) and big (950 sq. ft.). As you will see, the walls are really white (they're all primed) and we're allowed to paint-if we can afford to. Some time we will paint, but I'm not sure when. Other than the exceeding whiteness, the most annoying things are the sinks in the bathrooms; they happen to be plastic, and sometime in the past have been melted by curling irons.

Enough with the bad stuff, here are some great things. We have a walk-in closet in our bedroom, as well as a master bath (though it's really small). Karen's room is almost as big as ours, and feels really empty right now-even though it will fill up soon enough. The kitchen has tons of cabinet space as well as a pantry (narrow but very deep). We also have a washer and dryer, donated by a guy in our ward who is a general contractor; they should last a long time since they're Maytag and only about 2 years old. The living room is great. We have our fish by the window, then our new futon, then the 'book nook' as Joe calls it with all our books and the banana chairs. The front bathroom is great. We only had 'things' for one bathroom, so we bought all new stuff for it-froggies! Shower curtain, rug, toothbrush holder (currently empty) and soap are all frogs, which is fun. If you go out the back door of our apartment and take about 10 steps you will run into the pool. They are also planning to add a hot tub sometime in the near future, which will be cool (or hot).

That's the explanation; here are the pictures so you can see for yourself; sorry if they're not the best. ;)
