Our New Place

On Saturday, March 19th we got the keys to our new place.  I was so excited to see it!  Since we signed the lease while people were still living in it, we were not able to see the actual unit until move-in.  We knew it would be nice since the apartment was within the same apartment complex, but I was still so happy to find out it had everything we were looking for!  We wanted two main things (well for me it might have been three, or four, or five).  First, we wanted a second bedroom (now that we had two mattresses it only made sense) in hopes that we would attract more visitors.  Second, we wanted more storage.  The one bedroom was seriously lacking in storage space.  Femi felt we had too much stuff.  I disagree!  I felt we simply needed a bigger apartment and this two bedroom has proven me right.

Without further ado, let me present to you our new place.  (furnished pics are to follow)

The entryway which is the perfect location for an entryway table and mirror!

The living room.

The dining room.

Kitchen complete with a pantry (something we didn't have in the one bedroom).

Lots of needed cabinet space.

The master bedroom.

Another shot of the master.

Walk-in closet!!!

Master bath with a double vanity.

Hall closet.

Linen closet.

Guest bedroom.

The guest bedroom has a walk-in as well (that is two more closets than we had in our old place and two of them are walk-ins)!

Guest bathroom.

View from our balcony.  Love how the palm trees provide privacy!

View of the pool.  Looking forward to summer!

View of Century City from our apartment.  Femi's office is the second sky-scraper from the right.  We are living in the shadow of the law.

And lastly, this Kansan has found her other side of the rainbow!
