Year 2

This past week Cody and I celebrated our two year anniversary! It seems just like yesterday that I was sending him off on his mission and now four years later we are celebrating another anniversary. I wouldn't trade these past two years for anything! We have gotten to experience some pretty great things together and I can't wait for more. This year for our anniversary we were going to do a couple things. First, we wanted to go to New York since it's only 1 1/2 hours away from where we live, but then figured we should try another weekend since we didn't really know what we were doing yet. Second, we wanted to go to the Jersey Shore since that is only an hour away from us, but it poured all weekend here so that was out. Instead, we went out to dinner at Olive Garden and got some frozen yogurt! Even though we didn't get to go to the places we wanted, it was still great spending time with Cody. :)

Here's a few pictures I found of us together these past couple years... warning major picture overload!

Cody thought he was so cool because he got a hole-in-one.

Little did he know I would get one right after him... that's right!

There's so many more pictures I wish I could put up. My sister-in-law, Michelle, took some great ones for our anniversary, but sadly, my computer takes FOREVER to download them all so I may have to add those in when I have a little more patience. :) But, for now, here is a small, small portion of our lives these past two years. I am so glad to have Cody in my life I honestly can't imagine it without him. He is an amazing husband and I couldn't ask for anyone better I am one lucky girl!  

Our Home Away From Home

I thought I would let you all take a look at where we are living for the next year since a lot of you won't be able to see it in person. I also feel like this is our home now and it took me awhile to adjust to it and want to call it "home", but it's finally worthy to appear on the blog now :). I also wanted to keep a little record of our second "place". So, come on in!  

 

This is the view of the apartment when you first walk in.

 

This is the view from the kitchen table looking into the living room. It's actually a bigger space than it looks in the picture.

The place where all the cooking happens. Now, don't go falling in love with our cabinets and appliances I know they look brand new.... 

Our HUGE kitchen table, or should I say, card table.... this is where dinner takes place and right above the table is an old ceiling fan that has lights that you can switch back and forth to create little or more lighting. Yes, it can get very romantic under those lights! No, not really, I'm just teasin :)  

 

The lovely bathroom. And the mirror on the door is only because I am too short to look into the one above the sink. Seriously, who builds a mirror that high?

Our bedroom. This picture is actually only half the bedroom on the left there is a ton of space! It is one of the biggest rooms I have seen in an aparment. Our bedroom is my least favorite part of the apartment actually because one: It looks blah, but we aren't in there enough for it to be worth getting anything to decorate and two: our closet still smells like a cat lives there. If any of you know how to get rid of this "ghost cat" smell that still happens to be lurking in places it's not welcome, let me know!

 

I really enjoy the location of our apartment I feel very safe where we are and we are close to so many things. We have a lot of restaurants that are within 15-20 minutes of us. We also have good grocery stores that we can run/walk to if we need. And we have a train station that is literally in the back yard of our apartment complex. Who can complain with all of that right?! We are doing good and I am finally getting use to things around here so thats definitely a plus. I hope you enjoyed the small tour of the apartment. More updates to come!
