Show Us Where You Live Friday!

Today is Yard day for "Show Us Where You Live Friday" over at Kelly's Korner! Sadly, Josh and I only have a small balcony at our apartment, but I guess you could call it our "yard" haha.

When you walk out of our living room this is what you see: Our BBQ, a string of small lanterns, and our recycling bag.
Here is the view if you are standing next to the BBQ: The Sliding Glass door into the living room, and our super cool beach cruisers!
Pretty much all we do out here is BBQ and do laundry, which is in the utility closet. When we want to spend time outdoors we usually ride our bikes to the park nearby or go to the pool :)

But as you can see, we are REALLY out growing this tiny apartment, which is why we are so excited to move into a town house with a backyard in August!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Show Us Where You Live Friday!

Today is Master Bedroom Day for the 'Show Us Where you Live Friday' over at Kelly's Korner! So here are a few pictures of our ever so tiny Master Bedroom/Office (we only have a one bedroom apartment, so there isn't really anywhere else for our desks)!

This is the view of our bedroom when you walk in the bedroom door. Everything is courtesy Pottery Barn Kids! haha, surprising eh? It is so bright and SO pink, I love it!
Here is a picture without flash.
The door on the left is the door to the living room and bathroom, and the one on the right is our overcrowded walk in closet, which I have successfully taken over. And of course, Joshy has to maintain some manhood amongst all of the pink, hence the flat screen tv! Now if I could just make the cord dissapear...
Under the TV is my little quilt chest, covered in picture frames, candles, and piggy banks! I didn't even mean to, but I randomly started collecting piggy banks, whenever I see a cute one, I snatch it up!
Welcome to our home office, haha! Josh's side is on the left, mine on the right, in case you couldn't tell :)
Here is a view if you are standing by the window looking towards the bedroom door. I love the parisian mirror hanging on the ribbon!
I can't wait until we move to our new place in August, we will have a larger master bedroom and a room soley dedicated to being an office, yay!

Thanks for stopping by!

Show Us Where You Live Friday!

I'm a little late hopping on Kelly's Korner 'Show Us Where You Live Friday', but I've finally had the time to clean the house spotless and take pictures, so I'll be joining from here on out. :)

As many of you know, we don't own a house, we rent a one bedroom - one bathroom apartment. Therefore, the cabinetry, faucets, and light fixtures are not my choice/nor are they pretty, but I try to make due with the canvas I am given!

Everything in our bathroom is pretty much from Pottery Barn Kids (Actually: Everything in our entire house is pretty much from Pottery Barn/Pottery Barn Kids/and Williams-Sonoma).

This may seem strange at first, but I love Pink/flowery things, plus I worked there while in college, so the generous 40% discount encouraged my already unhealthy shopping habits!


Our Bathroom :)
The lovely shower curtain! Thankfully it is untangled! Along with my stripey bathmat and flowery towels.
I bought these cute flower hooks to hang our towels on behind the door, there is also a yellow one next to the shower so our towels can be within reach when we are done getting all showered up.
When Josh moved into the dorms a few years ago his sister picked out his bathroom accessories which resulted in him being all ducked out. One of the few things that has survived the last few years is the ducky toothbrush holder. Only Josh puts his toothbrush in it because I'm a germ freak, so I keep my toothbrush in a drawer where flying germs can't get to it haha. And next to it is my Victoria's Secret Berry Kiss scented lotion, also picked out by Josh's sister (who works there). I highly recommend the lotion, it smells yummy and is super soft!
So as you can see, there isn't much to see haha. Our bathroom is pretty small, but that's okay because we are moving soon! Yay!! More on that later :)

Happy Friday! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

oh and p.s. I am fully aware that my bathroom looks like an 8 year old girls bathroom, and I LOVE it!
