New York, New York Address

WE MOVED TO NEW YORK.... a month ago. Actually, exactly one month ago! We flew to NYC June 30th and were able to get the keys to our apartment right away. Our amazing friends, the Crawleys, drove all of our stuff out to New York for us, so all we had to do was unload the moving van into our apartment! Easy right? I wish! Moving seriously shows you how much junk you have. But it's also a great opportunity to sort through said junk! Which takes a lot longer than you'd think. Anyways, here's what our brand spanking new apartment looked like (My apartment is almost all set up, and I will post pictures of the final product soon!)

^Flying out to NYC at 6am^

^So when we first enter our apartment, this is half of the front room. It's a kitchen/living/dining room. Obviously this is the kitchen side!^

^Sorry it's blurry! But this is the "living room side". And yes, the fridge only fits in this wonderfully prominent spot. But at least we have a big fridge! Oh and our apartment has wonderful tall celings. And these pictures were taken around 5pm with no lights on. Look at all that bright natural light! We love it! (especially after living in a darker provo apartment)^

^Another angle on our front room)

^Our little hallway from the front room to the bathroom^

^Our bathroom is actually really nice! Lots of stone tile. Oh and we have a bathtub, should we want it. That's a pretty big deal, cause in our last apartment our shower was probably as big as the sink in this picture...^

^The view from our bathroom window - not bad at all! And Clark's building is right next to that glowing gold tower on the left^

^Please ignore all the luggage, but this is our bedroom! It's the biggest & brightest room in the place, and we LOVE its layout^

^Oh and we have the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING right outside our window. I'm bummed cause this picture makes it look a lot farther away than it actually is. Oh well! When I lie down on my side of the bed, this is my view. It's going to take me a long time to get used to it. Especially cause they change the lights on the building all the time!^


^And this is our apartment with all of our junk thrown into it. Yikes! Haha that's why it took us a month to get all moved in - lots of ikea furniture to build, and boxes to sort through. We love our place so much though. And I am SO happy we are almost 100% moved in. ^
