Our Little Apartment..... For Now :)

I realized that there are several people that haven't been to our apartment in Madison.  I thought it would be nice to post some pictures.  I know a lot of friends and family won't make it here to visit for quite awhile due to jobs, children and distance...... so hope you enjoy!

Don't worry!  If you come to visit, we make sure to clear out the guest room!  We love visitors!

Suprise- Jordan in the Kitchen!

Normally, I am the first one to get home from work.  I try my best to make dinner for Jordan before he gets home.  I know that he is starving after working a 10-12hr day.  Yesterday, Jordan actually got home before me!  I called and asked him to make dinner.  Of course his response was, "I don't know how......"  Jordan is usually great at cooking dinner, also known as putting a pizza on the pizza maker.  To my suprise I came home to this.

Jordan actually made dinner.  Like a real dinner, not pizza!!!!!  He made Tuna Helper and Broccoli and Cheddar Rice.  No fruits or veggies, but I was happy it wasn't another pizza night. 

Pumpkins!!!!

Jordan and I have never acutally carved pumpkins together, so we decided this year would be a great time to start a new tradition.  We went to a farm nearby one night, and took a hayride out to a huge pumpkin patch.  In the dark, we were able to pick out any pumpkin that we wanted.  Of course I was looking for a pumpkin that had a good carving surface, and Jordan just wanted the biggest one he could find.  The next weekend we carved our pumpkins and here is how they turned out.

Here is Jordan's pumpkin.  He originally wanted to carve a badger, but he couln't find anything online.  So he went to his other favorite team, the Packers.

This is my pumpkin.  I wanted to do a carving a little more Halloween related, so I chose the ghost in the graveyard.  Pretty creepy....... :)

Meet the Happy Couple

Some may ask, Why are you blogging?  Well, since moving to Madison we are far away from our family and friends.  My friend Shelley lived away for a few years and she started blogging.  www.shelleyfronczek.blogspot.com I appreciated it, because I felt that I was still in touch with her frequently because I always got to see what she was up to.  I figured if I started blogging, it first off gives me something to do since I hardly have friends down here.  Second, our family and friends can still see what we're up to, since we may not always have time to chat. 

Meet the happy little family :)  Here is my husaband, Jordan, and me, Marie, on our wedding day, July 23, 2011.  This is one of my favorite pictures that was captured by Jordan's cousin.  As we were walking down the steps, I tripped and almost fell!  She wasn't our photographer that day, but she is an amazing photographer and she caught this special moment.  Thank you Andrea!  www.andrealarsonphotography.blogspot.com

Well, now that you have met us.  We should introduce you to our lovely "children".  Lucy was our first child that we adopted almost two years ago.  She is so well-behaved and is our little cuddler.

Then about a month ago, we realized our little Lucy was lonely.  Lonely meaning tearing apart our house because she was bored home alone all day while we were at work.  So we decided to look at the animal shelter to find her a buddie.  That is when we adopted Rowdy.  He is our little rascal.  He is a puppy and is still learning that it isn't ok to chew on everything, espeically our socks and undies!!!



The two dogs get along soooo well, and Lucy no longer trashes the house :)

Well, for now that's about it!  With Halloween coming up, more pictures to come!!!!  Lucy is going to be a cheerleader and Rowdy is going to be a pirate!  Ha ha!!!!
