Well as most of you know by now, we moved to Bountiful into another basement apartment. It is a walkout basement, mostly above ground, so the apartment is pretty lit up. We absolutely love it! It is a HUGE upgrade from our other one. Our bedroom fits our bedroom set with tons of walking space all around it. Heck I could even do a couple of kart-wheels if I wanted to. We also put our other TV in our room on a mini entertainment center, box thing. It's awesome!
The house was built in 2005 so it also is a lot nicer than our other 1960 apartment. It has a lot of cool things about it that I would have never imagined an apartment having. In the bathroom there is a light you can turn on that heats up the bathroom while you shower so you’re not cold when you come out!!! AWESOME!! It also has one of those fans you turn on that circulates the air (most bathrooms have those) but this one has a timer on it! We also have our own laundry room (before we had a shared space with our land lords) so that is really nice. It also has counter tops and cupboards that we can put stuff in! Then the kitchen has a side by side refrigerator and a lot more cupboards and counter space than our other one with really nice granite counter tops and the tile is really pretty too!! Then our extra bedroom is probably the size of our bedroom in the other apartment which makes it really nice to store things in! We can actually make it look organized and nice instead of just all thrown about. Then we have a gas fireplace, an alarm system, Dish Network TV, theater lights above so the lighting is really nice to watch movies with, all of the lights have the capability to go brighter or dimmer which I thought was cool, we have double glass doors that open up so it made moving stuff in SO EASY!! The main room with the TV is a lot bigger than our other one!
When we moved in the family gave us a really nice entertainment center that had the capability of holding a big TV so bought a 46 inch Samsung LCD TV to go in it and we LOVE that too!!! I seriously am not trying to make anyone jealous I just really feel blessed that I found this opportunity for us. We get to stay here for FREE which will really help us save up for our very own house! All I have to do is take care of the CUTEST three little kids!! I have already fallen in love with them.
We got $481 dollars in the mail from our insurance company from mike's lost items so we bought another camera off the internet. It should be here soon so I will take pictures of the kids and our apartment as soon as we get it!!! I LOVE IT!!
Anyway other updates are that I got accepted into the Education program so I will be DONE with school in three semesters!! (finally!!) Which is another blessing for us with staying in this place because I will have to quit working at Shriners in order to finish school and I don't know if we would have been able to afford everything without me working. So by me working as a nanny I will be able to finish school, we won't have to pay rent, and we will qualify for grants again next year for school! (We didn't for this fall and spring.....we made too much money!)
Well I think that is it for now.
