DC Homecoming

After 3 years of living the suburban lifestyle, we have finally made the decision to get the hell out of here. Actually, this decision was pretty much 3 years in the making - We always just talk about it and never really put those words into action. Finally tired of complaining about it, we decided to do something about it so after Thanksgiving '06, we went house hunting and have found the perfect place. After having moved 4 or 5 times while in college, I should have known finding the perfect place was the easy part; the hard part is packing, and the hardest part is throwing enough stuff out to fit in our new, 1-bedroom, apartment.

We always knew going into this, we would be trading space for location, I mean, come on, we're moving back into DC, we were more than willing to do this tradeoff. But, instead of a 2-bedroom like we have now, we are moving into a 1-bedroom unit, which, honestly, is not all that bad considering we rarely ever use our guestroom. It is located on one of the best streets in DC and we are more than thrilled to move. Our official move in is next Friday, Feb. 2nd. Excited, yes, exhausted, that too!

Now we're just trying to pack up 3 years of crap and condensing it into one 10' U-Haul truck and a small SUV. This is what our current beautiful apartment has turned into:

What our beautifully decorated living room turned into...

This was once a gorgeous bedroom..hard to imagine

But, I keep telling myself that it is for the best - We are moving into one of the most exciting cities on the East Coast! Please check out my website for more pictures if you are interested! Link is provided to the right of this website under "Links".
