Day One of Having Home

Today went very well. Ali and I got started at 10:00 am and went to breakfast. After our family suggested meal (Thanks Shirley) we went and met with the landlord (Jack is AWESOME) and he gave us the breakdown and we gave him the check $2,635 took care of us till October rent...which is good!

Next we went to Ikea to buy our new bedroom set, to get there we rented a OLD crappy U-Haul. It took us 3-4 hours to get everything together, and by the end...we were just WISHING we were no longer there! We then were driving home, on the drive home we talked about going to Costco...but we just wanted to get home and assemble everything. Price tag $1,616.55, this is the most I've ever spent at one sitting...aside from buying my car. Life is decidedly crazy as to how that makes me feel.

U-Haul was beckoning us to return the truck, so that's what we did next. We got there 4 minutes after they closed, and that sucked...but it's due back tomorrow, so there is no worry. So we dropped the truck off and decided to go to Costco. We went to Costco and bought a car load of stuff, for an already full car, it was a tough one packing my little gold baby up, but we did it. This one cost us $111.55

In and Out Burger was calling on us to pick up some food, so we did that ($10.43). We got back and sat on our BIG balcony and ate. After getting done we went in and assembled the bed. Which is an easy assembly with some annoying parts! You can see the pictures below of our apartment, and if there are not many...the number will increase, no doubt!

So Alison and I have ourselves partially situated in this beautiful new home (best I've ever lived in) and we are excited to se what God brings us next, be it a problem, or something great! I have faith that it will be the something greats!

Here are some pictures!
