Annnddd a new feature of our apartment is a laundry area that requires a washer and dryer. Our current stacked washer and dryer wouldn't work in the area so we are in the process of selling it to the next tenants. Over the last few weeks we have been looking at washer and dryers.... whew these appliances are much more than I anticipated! The average top-loading set can go for about $800 for both but with the options that come with the front-loading washer and dryers really sold us. Water and energy efficient and they're more gentle on the clothes. SO after researching and price comparing these washer and dryers we decided upon these LG's. (You may notice the difference in the rim around the openings...we decided to get the bigger capacity washer and then a dryer from the next model down-if that makes sense?)
So those bad boys are getting delivered on August 8th. We're slowly starting to build up the appliances/furniture that will someday fill our house. Thank goodness we're able to do it over long period of time!
Extra news....believe it or not Pierre is still alive! We love playing with them...we take him for walks, tease him like we're fishing him with a toothpick and string, and ..... jjjjuuuusttt kiiddinngg.. Pierre is still very active and seems happy, I just can't believe he is still swimming. But honestly this fish isn't super exciting. We visited a pet store last night and I tried to work on Justin for this adorabe dachshund but that clearly is not going to happen. O well!
Justin and I are both working at Pinnacle right now. Justin is really doing great at this position he's been hired for and seems to really like it. I am doing customer service, not the most exciting job but it actually isn't all that bad. I am looking for other jobs and potentially more education in a more specific field. It is up in the air though right now.
This weekend we're heading to Wyoming for the Allred Family Reunion (Friday and Saturday) and then next weekend we're going to Montana for a 4 day excursion with Justin's mission buds (aka best friends) and we'll be staying with his mission President at his cabin on the lake! Mini-vacations...here we come! I am excited to see these different beautiful parts of the West. Hopefully if I am not as absent as I have been I'll get pictures up here soon of these upcoming adventures :-)

Ok you must not get as many calls as I do cause customer service stinks. But it is a job and I only work 6 hours a day so I will shut up now. LOL WOW so now we will have someone where else to stay when we visit sounds good. A lot of changes going on so will this be a rental or purchase? I can't remember what you said. Yep appliance shopping is draining and there are so many options. Well good luck with everything.
Your new apartment looks so nice! I am really excited for you guys. And with 3 bedrooms, you better start filling up those rooms...if you know what I mean! Are those the apartments where Lisa's bridal shower was? And that is so fun you are heading out on so many little vacations.
P.S. Are you thinking of going back to school?
The washer/dryer look great! No one will notice the difference in trim except you! Who cares! I'd have gone for the larger capacity as well. Just wait for the day when you'll be filling that baby up with a million pairs of jeans and you'll be happy you were so wise!
YAY you guys found a place that is so exciting. Congratulations! Sounds like you are having a fun and eventful summer. We miss you guys!
