Wow, it's been too long

What a busy week, and to top it off, my internet was not working well enough to publish a new post. I'm very sorry dear readers. How annoying it must have been to check our blog and find that nothing new was posted.
This past week, we finally got our new furniture. We went to IKEA and since I still don't have a charger for my batteries, all I can do if give you the names of what we bought and you can check out IKEA's website to see what they look like. I think I will have to give in and buy a new charger this week. We got the beige EKTORP sofa, 2 tall bookshelves,a short long bookshelf, and a t.v. stand from the MARKOR line (the dark brown stain), and the dark red HELLUM rug. Things are looking a bit homier now, which makes it nicer to come home to - not to mention easier to keep things tidy since there's more room for everything to go.
I have some pics that I took before the furniture, but after I came and unpacked boxes with stuff for the apartment. I think these are the first pics to appear on my blog in nearly a year. That's embarrasing.




This is part of our bedroom. The colours are currently blue and beige (from my old room in Grand Rapids), but is doesn't go that great with the yellow walls, so we talked about making the decorating colours deep red and goldish, since we can't paint the room.

This is the bathroom. The colours are Black and white and the accent colour I've chosen is this bright lime green. It makes the bathroom fun that way... as opposed stiff and stark.


This of course, is the kitchen. We're in there alot cooking. yum.

I'll try to get more pics posted soon. That's all I've got for now.
I'm going to make some tomato soup for dinner. I was missing yours Dad, so the next best thing is making it myself. :)
Love you all!
