Home Sweet Decorated Home

If you're a regular reader of this blog (if you're not, I don't know why you're not...), your last memory of our apartment was this...
[puppy sold separately]

But now, we're just about settled. It's only taken us 6 months. So sit back, relax and enjoy the tour. When you enter, this is what you see...
Turn to your left (no, your other left) and you will enter the living room...
Believe it or not, Nate picked out those rugs :)Jake has become more sophisticated since living in Europe. Instead of jumping on you or barking at you, he now plays the perfect host!
Now, step into my office... this is where the blogging magic happens (ha..ha)
The orchid... my favorite flower.
Still the perfect host...
Nate's garden...
Now turn around...
Our fun Ikea lights in the corner to your right...
If you're thinking that we've been rude because we didn't ask to take your coat, it's because the apartment only has ONE closet. In other words, we don't have any room for it.
Come into the bedroom...
My favorite lamp ever, which Nate picked out. Who knew Nate had such good taste!
The detailing on our comforter...
Our perfect host wants to take a nap, but he doesn't know where to lie down because the bed is made!
The full picture of the bedroom...
Side Note: Nate helped me write this blog, which explains all the corny comments!
Coming soon... the rest of the apartment!

Maria and Nate, Great job with the apartment! You could decorate as your next profession. I liked all the colors. Where did you get the pictures? Very nice. Your blogs are really nice to look at and read. Thank you for taking the time to do them with cute comments etc. It makes us feel as if you're close. Does Nates' garden include any herbs? Look forward to seeing it and you too in June. Love you, Mom

The apt. looks great...but wait...where are all the dirty clothes? Doesn't look like you could stuff them under the bed and the closet looks out of the question...wait...did you actually clean?!? Haha, just picking on you! Jake looks so cute, what a good poser, just like his mama!! Can't wait to see the rest of the place! Kudos Nate on your garden, I need to do that!!!!

Maria, I love your house! It is really cool to see you embracing the swiss style. If I were you, I'd have a small crisis going home - haha! Are you going to bring stuff home with you?
