New Apartment!

So Ryan is officially all moved into the new apartment. It's definitely a step up from where we were at. We're on the 32nd floor and have great views of Capital Hill and Downtown Seattle as well as Mt Ranier on a sunny day in the back ground. Some awesome things about the new apartment: really tall concrete ceilings, an actual bedroom, large dogs are allowed, a great gym overlooking the city, huge windows, and it's environmentally friendly! Really the only part I dislike about it is that there's more carpeting than I would like. I also did not like the small about of counterspace and storage in the kitchen...buuuuuut, that has been remidied! On Monday we scooted over to IKEA and picked up a great kitchen island! It has drawers and cabinets on one side, and a bar top seating area on the other side, and a huge surface area on the top! I love it and am super excited about it.

I think we're in an awesome place for now, and I plan on moving into it as well when I move down to Seattle in the winter and start my new position in Kitsap. We have a 18 month lease, which I think is the perfect amount of time to get all settled into our new lives and save up a little money to hopefully look into buying a place next. That would be super exciting! It would be hard to beat these views though!
