We found a place to live!

We are super excited. The apartments are called Cresthaven and they are located in Lehi, 5 minutes from Brian's new job. They are brand new this year. We will be on the top floor, which means vaulted ceilings. It's a 2 bedroom/2 bath and comes with a garage, patio, and extra storage attached to the patio. Here are some pictures I took when we went through it for the first time. This won't be our exact apartment but it will look the same. We move in July 12th! Can't wait. Now everyone needs to come visit us! (the second bedroom has its own bathroom...hope that's incentive enough) :)

Our Apartments

Brian got a job! Woohoo! He starts his new job at 97th Floor (a Digital Marketing Agency) in Lehi this Wednesday. His official title is "Junior Digital Marketer"and he is excited to learn lots. Since he will be working in Lehi (30 mins North of Provo), we have been looking at new places to live, somewhere closer to his work. We will most likely be moving to Pleasant Grove in mid-July. Although Provo has been great to us, we are excited to move on. We're also looking forward to moving into a bigger/nicer apartment. Our apartment has served us well and we are ready to move on to something better! I am feeling sentimental so I've decided to post some pictures of all the apartments we've lived in. I can't believe we've lived in 3 apartments in only 1.5 years of marriage. I'm hoping once we move this summer we will be there for at least two years! I hate moving.

Apartment #1:
A dinky basement apartment at 240 N 400 E in Provo. When our family helped move us in the week before the wedding, we could tell they were shocked. You're going to live here? It only had a kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom, no living room. We were tired of it after four months. I needed a living room!

There she is in all her glory. Our door was around the back and down some creepy stairs.









Apartment #2:
Good ol' Heritage Court #138. We moved here May 2013. I was just excited to have a living room! We could finally have people over. The people who lived in the apartment before us left the loveseat and we got the couch at DI. After some steam cleaning, it was good to go!









Apartment #3:
We only lived in our second apartment for 6 weeks, at which point we put all of our stuff in storage and worked for Road Scholar the entire summer! We stayed in a hotel the entire two months so we didn't need to pay for rent. When we came back in August, we moved back into the same building at Heritage Court, just in a different apartment (#231). So everything looks pretty much the same, it's just reversed. We got new couches a couple weeks ago, so that's exciting! I'd like to think that I've gotten better at the whole decorating thing. Brian wouldn't move out of the way for the pictures, so I guess you can call him my model.





He's a natural.














Well that's it! I'll be sure to post pictures of our new place once we get there.
