new pictures of the apartment!!

The rest of our furniture finally arrive on Friday afternoon... the first of the 3 rainiest days we've had in Dallas since February. It's been awesome to hear rain falling constantly since Friday afternoon, when the temperature plummeted from 89F to 73F!! Unfortunately, with the rain, came a water damaged table. Long story short, Crate and Barrel said that we can keep this table as a loaner until the new one arrives in 2 weeks, hopefully on a dry day so that it's not covered in water spots.

We also got some of our posters framed. We'll get a couple framed every month. This month, we got 3 of our Swiss posters framed...Pilatus, Gruyere & Lac Leman... you can see them in the pics. We're finally down to only a few boxes left to unpack know that the hutch has arrived. It has so much storage space... I love it!!

-Dining room table, buffet & hutch top

-Plus couch

-The media console and TV, side chair and ottoman, and our awesome trunk/coffee table

-View of the kitchen/entryway/desk from the TV

-The desk and door to our bedroom from the view of the kitchen

-Our bedroom, which is in desperate need of wall art

-Our bedroom from the closet

-Bedroom: door to the living room, bathroom and closet

-The closet, now all organized!

without further adieu....

hahaha... I have no idea how to spell that, or what the actual words are, but when I started typing, it came out half in french....

so without further adieu.... a few pictures of the apartment!!! (disclaimer: these pictures were taken the week after we moved in... I'll put more up this weekend when the remainder of our furniture arrives and I've finished unpacking the rest of the boxes)

-Our new couches and media console in the living room/dining room

-Our first dinner in the apartment

-The overly large bedroom

-Our massive walk-in closet (12 ft X 5 ft...it's way more organized now)

-Bathroom

-View of the pool from our balcony

-Sunset view from our apartment

I just realized that I have no pictures of our kitchen. I'll remember to take pictures of the kitchen/desk entry way this weekend (if I remember/have time... Stéphanie-I remembered to post them tonight!!)

Memphis! Country Fair! Pigs! Ostriches!

If I didn't sell you with the title, how about some of the ridiculous pictures I took.... well, the pictures aren't ridiculous, some of the events are.

-The mighty Mississippi

-Pig races

-Men racing ostriches

-Demolition Derby (sadly, this car is all we got to see)

-The Freakshow (sword swallower & lady with snake)

-Beale Street

And as usual, no pictures of me because I didn't take any self-portraits.
