We're getting closer and closer to making our place look like a
home... with only about a billion things left to buy. C'est la vie
n'est ce-pas? We went from 760 sq ft to almost 1400 sq ft, and
all of this extra space that needs to be filled. This place is
really bringing out our creative, decorative and BROKE side.
It's been rewarding, however, to put in the time and effort and
slowly watch the place come about.
After spending the last few weekends going out of town to do
some backpacking trips, we decided to stay in Seattle over the
4th of July weekend and catch up on some sleep and finish up
opening the rest of the boxes from moving. Everyone around
us was talking about the fireworks over Lake Union, but to tell
you the truth, Independence Day has never been about
fireworks for me. Mainly because 4th of July is my brother's
birthday so his celebration is the most important. So J. and
myself decided to skip the fireworks, the crowds and drunken
party animals, and enjoy a romantic dinner overlooking Alki
beach and the beginning of a beautiful sunset. Great decision
on our part.

I hope everyone else had a great holiday!
