You have reached your destination

Sorry it's been so long since I have posted, we didn't have internet until recently. But now that I have it I will fill you in as to what's been going on.

The three bedroom townhouse was a wreck and so we didn't get it. Instead we are in  a loft, downtown.The first picture is part of the master bedroom
                                                          This one is Monica's room

                                                                    Walk-in Closet!!


                                  Kitchen/ Dining area. I'm soooo glad the kitchen is large!



                                         Living/ Dining area. it's pretty open and sunny :)
                                                                Master bath part one...
                                                                     ...And part two

                                              Monica's bath room and her lovely self

So That's the basic of the loft. It's pretty large and open and we have TONS of windows, which is great. Monica and I decided that we were going to back cupcakes for our new neighbors and so I got to bust out the kitchen-aide and we made these bad boys.
Mmmmhmmm Mojito cupcakes. They were a hit! We had people in the elevators telling us how much they enjoyed our cupcakes.

Well, we didn't have furniture, as you can see, and we didn't have cable or anything like that. So what did we do? We toured the best free place in St. Louis; The Budweiser factory. And let me tell you, it was the prettiest dang facory I have ever seen, and not just because of the products.
This is just one of their buildings, it takes up a whole city block

the famous Clydesdale

A tribute to hops, in chandelier form
And the grounds were immaculate! After the tour we got free beer, yes you read right. FREE tour and FREE BEER! life is good :)

Well, after some time we FINALLY got furniture, I never realized how much I love not sitting on the floor. We also painted a little, because we are colorful people.
Dining Accent wall, we call it "cranberry"

Laundry room, it's more blue. Very bright and beautiful

This is our sofa and ottoman.

our fantastic circle chair

and dining room table with mirror peaking out
We also got a bed, but I think it would be weird to post a picture of that.


In all of that hecktic nonsense I got a job! It's a restaurant called Blondie's (http://www.blondiesstl.com/) and I LOVE it. It's waaay different than Packo's but it feels comfortable and I think I will do well there and their food is awesome.

Monica also got a job interview for Monday so we may all be employed here soon!


We met a ton of nice people here, Like our Neighbors with Pepper Pots the dog and the den mother who is soo sweet.  the Neighbors brought us over beer one night, I think they like us. And Jake and and Moni had fun with Den Mother while I was working.


So far it's been fun and an experience. But I think I'm where I'm supposed to be.
