Joe and I are finally out on our own again!! We lived with the parents for 1 year and couldn't take it anymore. So we live in a 1 bdrm apt, all hardwood floors, new-ish kitchen....and its ours...well in the renting kindof way.

Anyways so all is going well..we've been here for 2 days. Its so nice to be able to do what we want when we want. We're no longer confined to one room...its SCHAWEET!
