Our First Apartment

After a wonderful honeymoon, we couldn't waste any time getting our apartment organized and ready for living. We were so lucky to have our family members help out while we were away by moving in all of our things. All of our stuff was there for us by the time we got back Sunday night (just in time for school to start the next morning).



Here is a closer look of the cute sign our families signed for us,
"Welcome Home Mr. and Mrs. Gruber!"




I am so thankful to them and for all they did for us to make the transition into our new "home" such an easy one. I'm STILL working on getting it how I would like it, but it has definitely been a fun and exciting process. Skills in interior design and culinary art had to be quickly acquired to keep up with the married lifestyle. It's been challenging but I have come to love it. Who could have foreseen the day that I would be cooking meals regularly? I know my family couldn't have....I know Jaleah couldn't have...I certainly couldn't have...and I know that Jason is pleasantly surprised to say the least. Here is a peek at dinnertime one of the first weeks moving in:


Yummy salmon withe pineapple salsa!




Bon appetit!

    That's an impressive dinner spread! Hopefully I'll pick up some of those homemaking skills soon; poor Matt is being fed out of a microwave. Your apartment looks super cute, though! How sweet of your families to help set it up while you were gone.
