finally!...

So I finally took pictures of our little home. We live downstairs of an older ladies house. It has been working out pretty well for now. So because we just live downstairs we don't have a kitchen so in one of the pictures you will see what we made our "kitchen" look like. It has been hard for me to not be able to have a kitchen to cook but better yet, bake! I want to just be able to make a cake or something sweet for my sweetie. :)

So this first picture on the left is a very from right in front of our closet. That is our nice new dresser my mommy and daddy just bought us! Thanks mom and dad! ...and next to that is our little contraption we made so we can see that tv to watch movies at night :)

This picture to the right is of our cute little bed, night stand and my jewelry chest. My parents bought me this really nice bedroom set a couple of years ago knowing that I would someday need one. I really like it. I got to pick what I wanted. I'm glad Jonny likes it too! The quilt on the bed is a wedding gift from my mother-in-law. She stitched the whole thing and made it our wedding colors. It took her forever. It is very nice and we like it a lot. Thanks Lynnette!




This is our cute little bathroom. It's nothing too special but we like it. We decided that we had to have some kind of cougar blue in our house or Jonny would go crazy so we made our bathroom blue, tan and brown. I like it. And if you can see we have our engagement pictures that Lynnette framed for our luncheon all over our house. We even have one in the bathroom! haha



This one to the right is our lovely DI couch that is very comfy and perfect for our situation. I would suggest anyone that is a newlywed to go check out DI for anything you need before you buy it new. It is the way to go. Up on the wall behind the couch is our pictures that we had people sign at our reception...way better than a book. And of course our picture of Christ on the back wall.




So this is our "kitchen"...but it works for the time being. I don't know how long but at least for now it will work. To the left of the picture is where we do all the cooking and keep all the food. The table is where we attempt to have meals but usually just end up on the floor or on the couch. And then our dvd collection in the far right corner. We have only been married for just about two months and have watched quite a few of those movies.


This picture to the right is another view of our living room. That is our tv and of course....on espn. Nothing else ever plays being married to a Neeley boy. Good thing I like sports. I don't know what Jonny would have done if he didn't. You can see more engagement pictures on top of the tv. All the way to the right is our "front door" but really its just the bottom of the stairs.

Well that is a little update on our little apartment. We like it and most importantly we are happy as can be being married to each other. A little update on some other things...

I just got back from my volleyball trip to St. George. It was fun and good to get away for a little bit but more than happy to be back and with my husband again. Volleyball two-a-days is still going strong but only for 2 more days!! School for me starts on Monday :( but that means season is starting!! :) My first game/tournament is next Friday. My parents will be coming up and actually staying for about a week and a half so I'm pretty stoked. I'm so lucky to have parents that are so supportive.

Jonny's jv volleyball team just had try outs last week so his practices have started. The high school starts tomorrow but Jonny is still free from school for another couple weeks...lucky...so he is busy with volleyball but isn't into full throttle until September. So we both are going to be super busy this semester but it will be fun.

We also got a calling as substitutes in the Junior Primary! We are very excited because we will be able to have the opportunity to learn how to teach and keep them interested. Jonny is a great teacher already but me on the other hand....I struggle. I guess I just didn't get my dad's genes. It will be hard with me traveling about every other weekend for volleyball but hopefully it will be able to work out for the best.

OK well I will stop rambling on and go do some dishes. Love you all!
