It took us about 24 hours to get out to Denver because we stopped at a Sleep in at about 3am to get some rest. Drew had been driving the entire time (pobrecito)...although I do take pride in the fact that I stayed up with him all but 2 hours of our trip!!
We arrived at our destination at 9pm the following day--this being the home of our friends, Joel & Gina Malefyt. Although J& G were more than willing to keep their home open to us for as long as we needed, Drew and I didn't want to have to unpack our U-haul (5' x 8' piled with a desk, chair, sofa, other chair, all our wedding gifts, a dresser and much more!), re-pack a week or so later, and then unpack again. It just didn't seem like the greatest start to our married life.
So, after searching the internet and making a few calls...we found the PERFECT home for rent! It has 2 br's, 1 bath, a large kitchen, a fenced-in backyard, a front porch... All the walls were white and Drew said he felt like he was living in an Assylum, so we did up the kitchen this past weekend "Alfalfa Green".
living room
our first few nights...no dining room table...no TV...just some wine and a really awful meal!
our bedroom.
the kitchen. new table and bench (thanks Target!)
bathroom. it's small, but I think my fav. is the pink tile on the wall and the sink that will forever be clogged!!
