Okay okay okay, stop poking me, that hurts. Mommy dearest I have now cleaned, and organized (not that it did one bit of good, I just have to much junk) my apartment and now have taken pictures for you so you can see where I live. But you know what would have been easier, and wouldn't require me looking at the computer for hours at a time and fighting with the stupid picture up loader!! You could just drive up and see me. Or not, that's up to you.
Any Who, on ward with the tour!!
Okay So we are kinda starting off differently then my other tour. Last time we started from the front door and went around. This time we are starting from the kitchen (which is the back corner of the apartment) and traveling forward.
So here you see the gorgeous tiny kitchen that has been over run by bears and pillow. Not to worry if they fall and hit you it doesn't hurt (however the basket they are in probably could do some damage depending on where it hit you and how hard)

Next shot is our office/eating nook. To the Right is our "desk" with lap top, cork board and about One Thousand cords that I couldn't tell you belonged to what. And to the Left is our pretty little kitchen table that sadly hasn't seen any cups or dishes sense Maryland. It has become our catch all. I try to keep it clean, but that's harder to do then you'd think.

This is our guest bathroom! Again, like the last place, it is bigger then the master bath and rarely used. (You can't see this but the drum set to our Rock Band is in the bath tub, hey that was the only place it would fit(By the way this picture is completely out of order, its across from the front door, around the corner from the front room))

One of these days I will be able to know when to take pictures and how. This Perfect picture of our Maryland Town House neighborhood was taken before we moved by my mother in-law. I wouldn't have thought to take it, or at the angle which she did. It is now my favorite picture and will always be up. (If you don't know which one was ours, its the brown one on the far right)

Behold the ever cluttered and squished Front Room. I'm not sure if its always squished looking because we have too much furniture/decorations/junk but it always ends up looking like this. (I think its that we have to much junk, but I love it all!) Our couches may have something to do with it, they are very big and comfy, the perfect place for naps!

Okay so these pictures are wildly out of order, but I'm done fighting with the picture up loader. It wins and I'm okay with that. This is our master bathroom. We have two closets; to our right behind the mirrored sliding doors is Joey's closet, to the left is the walk in closet, its mine, very full and very messy. I love this set up, the mirror doesn't fog up while I'm in the shower; and Joey can shower while I'm getting ready!

This is shot from the bathroom area, its to my back. The lovely master bed room! Yep the sheepy and puppy dog are still on the TV, they just seem to belong there, I couldn't relocate them. I love love love our quilt! Thank you so much Sherri! (she made it for us!)

Just another angle of the bed room. I was going a bit camera happy, I love that quilt. The washer and dryer are behind me, I didn't feel like taking a picture of them, so just pretend that I did. There are doors that close them up, like the last place, except for this time the doors don't get in the way of the dryer door. Not that it helps, the dryer door is so tiny I don't think Roxy could squeeze through.

Roxy's room! And what a girly room it is too! I loved decorating this room. I got to put up all of my stuff and make it beautiful and 100% me! (ignore the golf clubs, they are homeless for the time being, I'm trying to fit them in the front closet) If you look closely you can see Roxy's blanket is still with us, to Joey's eternal torment. We keep it locked up in her bed, if we don't she drags it around the house like the two year old she is. I personally think its sweet and let her get away with it. Joey hates the stupid thing, and shoves it back in her bed and locks it up every time she gets it out.

Cupcakes!!! The prettiest, glitteriest cupcakes you ever did see(unlike the fake cookies I keep in a jar on my kitchen table, these are not mistaken as the real thing and no one has tried to eat them...yet) . Originally made to be Christmas ornaments, I bought them at Hershey Park where we spent our 3rd anniversary. I thought they were too pretty to only be shown off once a month (plus they don't match my Christmas tree at all, I decorate it with purple and silver every year) I decided to get them out and use them in Roxy's room.

The other half of Roxy's room. Did you know I drew those pictures on the wall? I did when I was in high school and was still dead set on going to FIDM. I never throw out things that I've created, so I dug out these old pictures and posted them up on the wall. They remind me of the days when I liked to draw and design. (not that I'm any good, I just doodled) Under the table is all of my cross stitching stuff, I didn't know I had that much, and I have no idea where it all came from.

The ever expanding Bookcase! Does any one know of a bookcase that could use a good home, I need another one. This one is already falling apart on me, I've lost one self as it is! (not that the move helped it at all) My collection keeps growing and the space in which I thought was really big (Joey and I almost bought a smaller bookcase because we thought this one was to big) just isn't cutting it, and sadly I only own less then half of the book I want. (Sadly isn't really the right word) Don't you love the Iron Gym and the golf clubs in this completely feminine room? They just go don't they. They don't make any trouble,they know they are out numbered. (except if you look in the closest, You'll find all the camping gear, plus joey's tools, so don't feel to bad for them)

And there you have it! My new Apartment, completely with more details then you ever wanted. To bad, my blog, my pictures, my narration!! I renew my invitation to come visit us. We live much closer now and still have two wonderfully comfortable couches and one room,(Roxy snores sorry) Again thank you for spending your time reading my rambling. Keep an eye out, I'll most likely post more soon. I love you all have a Wonderful Day!!

Ally, You got me in trouble. I had two completely full bookshelfs until one broke and now they're just hidden in secret places throughout the house and I wanted to go to a bookstore on Thursday. Maybe I can find a new hidding spot that Eric won't know about. Also, love how you call the room Roxie's when it is obvious to anyone who knows you even a little just how that room is completely yours and not Roxie's. The Teddy Bears along the top of your kitchen is so cute too. I loved it. I also love the poke-a-dot (sorry can't think of how to spell it) blanket that was in the laundry basket in your room. Really cute. The quilt is also really nice and almost seems to be a little indian-ish which is cool. Eric really loves your headboard and is also frustrated because he just got a new bigger TV and he thinks Joey's is bigger so now I'm in trouble yet again. If its a 42in you'll have to let me know and if its not, I'll just pretend it is.
I'm glad you went into detail because it makes the tour that much more official. I miss you and wish I could visit. One day and hopefully soon though.
