Pretty Pictures

Photos from my sister's wedding party session. I am so amazed with how lovely these turned out. I love my dress and cardigan, and my boots :) I love my sister's attire as well. What a beautiful family I have.

Why yes, I'm quite short. 

The above photo makes me teary-eyed.

Sigh. In other news, the husband and I went apartment searching. Our previous apartment is unlivable and our landlady sounded like she has no idea when the distracted electric guys are going to finish with the repairs, so we gave up hope with that situation. Whilst on our hunt we had a choice between two apartments. The first was spacious: two bedrooms, a couple of linen closets, a pantry in the kitchen, lots of cupboard space in the kitchen too, and a dishwasher. I immediately loved it. It resembled our previous apartment, just upgraded. The second apartment we looked at was this tiny little thing! One bedroom, tiny kitchen and living room, a stove that looks as though it was made in the 1960s, and a bathroom that can only be accessed by walking through the bedroom. And the closet? It's unexplainable. Can you guess which one we chose?

Only a crazy couple would choose the dinky apartment, but crazy we are, I guess. The entire time we were in that apartment we laughed and made fun, but the price is what sealed the deal. That and the location.

The perks of our future, baby-sized apartment:

1. It's small, which will force me to get rid of things I don't need in order to fit comfortably.

2. It's got a carport, so one of our cars will stay a little cool during the summer months.

3. It's closer to school and my job.

4. It's within walking distance of a cheapy grocery store, Papa Johns, a dollar store, and Baskin Robins. 

5. It's 55 dollars less than the spacious apartment, and we don't have to pay a water bill. 

I'll take photos of this hilarious apartment in the near future. You know what, I'm talking as though we've already got the keys, but our application still needs to be reviewed. We'll pass without a doubt, no? 

October

So what else has happened this month? 

My sister-in-law got engaged and I took their pictures: 

We went to a pirate dance:

Ryan turned 25 and I made a cake:

We carved pumpkins last night: 

Pumpkin Biggie and Nyan Cat :)

I'm not sure if we'll do anything for Halloween. I don't know if I work yet. Any of you have fun plans for this weekend or Halloween itself? 

Well it's about time...

It's probably been a couple months since my last post. I've been so busy you know, with work and school and church...and...tumblr.... 

Another reason for my absence is that the charger for my Macbook crapped out a couple of weeks ago. And do you know how much it costs to replace one o' thems?? I've got a love/hate relationship with Apple.

Anywho, I think lots of thing have happened since two months ago, like my sister gettin' hitched: 

They had a photo booth and it was very fun. The evidence is below. 

 

Super fun wedding. I danced a lot :)

Also, guess what? We're still living at the in-laws'. The construction on our apartment complex is going much, much, much slower than planned. It's pathetic. But I'm grateful we have a place to stay (for free!) in the meantime. I miss all of my clothes, though. I've found some new thrifted things I'd like to post about once I can do it in the privacy of my own apartment. I think I'd be uncomfortable trying to explain to Ryan's family why I'd take all these pictures of myself, ha. 

Tumblr Love

Tumblr. It's only my favorite new way to waste time.

Any of you have one?
