48 Orchard Street

Finally the high anticipated photos of my humble abode:) Please keep in mind that it is still a work in progress; there is NOTHING on the wall (which drives me nuts). I LOVE this apartment :)

View from across the street. We are the door on the left. We have the entire upper floor.

The Office... I stay out of here, it is kinda scary!

Kitchen! This is the view from the dining room. I love the black and white tile and it was already painted red. Perfection!

Dinning room, view from the living room. We got a great deal on the table. I think this blank wall drives me the crasiest, minus the ones in my room.

Our bathroom was redone right before we moved in, it is so pretty!

My room! I LOVE it. I am thinking about painting. When we moved in I was too overwhelmed to even consider it.

Who would have thought I would get closet space like this in Boston?! I is amazing!

My "big girl" bedding:)) Kayla and Brett are going to work on raising my bed a little higher off the ground, right now I am practically on the floor.

My favorite thing about my room... HUGE picture window!

The view from my window to our pretty sweet back yard. Just behind the back fence is the commuter rail line that I have managed to become blissfully unaware of.

Well that is it for now. They are not the greatest pictures of all time, but I think that you get a pretty good layout of the place. Once we finally get some pictures on the walls I will try to update again. Come and see it in person!!!!!

Wish me luck, send me love, and keep me in your prayers!

Checking In...

Hello Everyone!

I hope that you are all doing well! It has been a while since I have posted so I am going to try to share the highlights of the past few weeks; bear with me, it might not be my most well written post :)

I feel like so much as happened! The most exciting thing being that my car, affectionally know as LaHonda, is finally here! A huge thanks goes out to Mom and Dad for all of their help in the very long and frustrating process of auto shipping! LaHonda has been up here for a few weeks now and has made me a much more pleasant person to be around. Having her up here as cut my commute down by over an hour! There was defiantly an adjustment period to the Boston way of driving; I had to learn to me a much more aggressive driver. Massachusetts drivers are know up here as "Massholes." Trust me when I say that the name fits! Haha!

I finally got to go to my first Red Sox game. It was a lot of fun, but I have to say, I was a little underwhelmed with the Green Monster. The stadium is beautiful and you can really feel the history and tradition as soon as you step inside. I loved singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game during the 7th inning and was so excited to sing Sweet Caroline during the 8th, but Mother Nature thought better of subjecting the public to my singing twice and decided to open up the sky before we got the chance. Apparently I got a true Red Sox experience because the game was rained out and I was soaked to the bone.

I also got to go to my first away game for Florida State ever and the only game I will get to see this year. The game did not bring us the outcome we were hoping for, but it brought Daddy up here, so I was still a happy girl. Kayla and my new friend Sweta went to the game with me. Rest assured that I decked them out in Seminole gear. We had a really good time despite the crummy weather and the even crummier performance by my boys.

It was so great to see Daddy! We didn't get to spend as much time together as I would have liked, but he came over for brunch on Sunday and got to see my new place. I think he approved, but if he had his way I would be back home in Tally and not 1,300 miles away. That being said, I know he is very proud of me:)))

I know that I promised to put pictures of the new place up weeks ago (sorry Grandmother!), I have no excuses... Sorry, I am a slacker! But I have Monday off (for Columbus Day... Mass uses any and very reason to have a day off) and taking and posting pictures is on the top of my to do list! Keep on me to make sure that I get it done!

Wish me luck, send me love, and keep me in your prayers <3
