Glorified Campers!

Many of you have been asking, "where are you guys living while your house is being built?" Good question!  But it was one that we answered last week.  Before the family drove down to spend the week at the beach, Drew and I found a nice (UNfurnished) apartment.  We officially moved in Sunday night.  


We don't have much in there: a cot, folding table, and chairs we borrowed from the in-laws.  We also have 2 camping chairs borrowed  from my Mom after our beach trip, and we bought an air mattress at 9 pm on Sunday night for Drew and I to sleep on.  Drew also managed to snag a few kitchen essentials from his parents' house too.  So basically, it's like we're camping with a really nice"tent."


Here's what grocery shopping looks like when your cupboards are bare.
 living room/dining room
(does it look dark?  That's because there are no lights in the living room or bedrooms)
 luxurious master suite with air bed
 Andrew has the best deal in the house!
We've ordered a new bed and it should be here in 2 weeks.  :)

We like the apartment and it's kind of fun without all the "junk." We're not getting cable until we move into the house, which I thought would KILL this TV junkie, but actually it's really nice.  We've had some good, quality family time lately!  

I'll be making a trip to Albertville to bring some more essentials and a couple of pieces of furniture very soon.
