Our Apartment!

I kow what you are thinking, "Two posts in a row, what is going on?!?!" I told you I would try to be better! Anyway here is what our apartment looks like!

Here is a layout of what the apartment looks like. It's not to scale, In fact I just used Word and a bunch of squares. Not exact, but you get the idea.

Looking down the hall as you walk into the apartment from the front door.

Immediately to the right is the bathroom and first closet.

The next door on the right is the office.

Trendy wall art, and the kennels, and Meeka's cute little tush.

Looking out of the office.

The living room is at the end of the hallway.

See my peace lily on the book shelf? I was soooo excited when I found it super cheap at the local market! I still need to repot it but I love having some green in the apartment.

This is looking back towards the front door. Lily was eating breakfast. Pretty cool food stands huh!

Looking down the second hall into the kitchen. Like my wine rack? Its a little empty, but I think its super cute!

This is my only real complaint about this apartment, my tiny little kitchen.

I love the window in the bedroom. On the sill there is a basil plant. Having fresh basil is delicious, plus it smells soooo good! Eventually I'd like to get some more herbs. 

Well there you have it, a tour of our apartment. I love it. The floors are my favorite part, they are so beautiful. I still want to decorate a little more, but that will come in time. There are also a few DIY projects I'd like to do too, so when I get around to them I will let you know. And just in case any of you are wondering there is definitely plenty of room for guests to come stay...AHEM...HINT...HINT :) Happy Tuesday to everyone I'll post more soon!! :)

Hello, I'm still alive!

OK ok You got me. I am a TERRIBLE blogger! Lets just get that out of the way. I'll try harder. SOOOOOO.....We moved to Brooklyn, and when I say we I mean Lily, Meeka, and I drove half way across the country, while Aaron was in Dominica doing his OB rotation. On day one I stopped In Michigan to meet up with some family and to stay the night. Then drove the rest of the way on day two.
View Larger Map That was my route. We stopped every half tank to fill up and stretch our legs. The girls are fabulous travelers. They mostly sleep, eat their chewy sticks, or gnaw on a bone. It was so nice to have them with me. Once we got to brooklyn we stayed at the La Quinta for 3 days until the apartment I had found was ready. Then we moved from the hotel to our new home where we lived for almost 2 weeks with only an air mattress, my computer (without internet for the first week), a bag of dog food and, some clothes. Our stuff finally arrived the night before Aaron was due home, so the poor guy came home to lots and lots of boxes. It was pretty stressful and I DO NOT EVER want to do that again all by myself! But we are all unpacked and settled in. Pictures soon!

Meet the Robertsons! :)

I am now Mrs. Aaron Robertson! We couldn't be happier! Everything turned out a million and ten times better than we could have ever imagined it would. Vegas was unbelievable fun, but it flew by! It was great to be surrounded with our family and friends. And I'm in love with our pictures! The day of the reception there was a blizzard outside, but a few brave souls still came to celebrate and we had a fantastic time dancing the night away!

Have a very Merry and safe Christmas!!

Butterflies!

I had the most spectacular weekend! Friday was my bachelorette party my awesome cousin, Tonya, planned. It was more fun than I could have imagined! I loved every second of it. Saturday was low key, hung out with my cousins for most of the day then we went out to the farm and helped Gram put up the Christmas decorations. Then we ate pizza and played cards. It was great. Sunday I had a family Thanksgiving to go to which had some really, really, great food! It was and absolutely Spectacular weekend! However this coming weekend is the weekend I have been waiting my entire life for. I get to marry the man of my dreams. I can not believe it is only 5 days away! Just thinking about it makes the butterflies in my stomach go crazy! It seems like we just made the decision to get married in Vegas, and now it's practically here! I'm so excited! We have some truly amazing family and friends joining us! There will be 20 people in Vegas! Way more than I had expected, and I'm thrilled!! It is going to be soo much fun! I can't wait!!

Thanksgiving...

I know it has been ages since I last updated this! Life has been absolutely crazy. I'm not even sure if anyone checks my blog anymore! However I figured that Thanksgiving is the perfect time to start up again. I wanted to share with all of you just a small portion of the stuff that I am thankful for this year. ~ My wonderful hubby to be! ~ The unconditional love and support of my family and friends! ~ My beautiful Puppies! ~ My health! ~ The baby growing in my sister! ~ How beautiful my wedding is going to be thanks to the help of my amazing family and friends! ~ Aaron being done with Step 1 and getting to actually see him! That is just a tiny list, but you get the idea. With the wedding 12 days away there is still much to be done, but it really has reminded me of all the things Aaron and I both have to be thankful for. I have to say I am missing Dominica and all the amazing people I met there. I love being home and around my family and friends here, but I miss all my Ross friends terribly. I know that we will meet up again and see each other again soon, but its so hard to be away from people that are going through what you are going through. Its just not the same venting to people not going through it because its hard for them understand what its like. So if any of my Dominica Friends are reading this, I miss you, I hope you are doing well, and I can't wait ti see you! I promise to up date again soon, no more waiting 5 months! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families! Enjoy every second of it! Sending lots of love your way!
