You got it Maria!

When I posted a picture of our new bookshelf Maria asked me to take some more pictures of the apartment. Well, not much has changed since I originally posted apartment pictures, but we have added furniture, artwork, and some odds and ends.Our Bedroom, complete with new comforter that we got for Christmas!

Goodwill shopping

Today after work I was in the mood to stop by Goodwill. I always check their case to see if there is anything good in it. As I glanced towards the back I noticed a black purse that was made of the right material and had the distinctive markings of a Coach bag , double stitching etc. So, I took a gander only to find that it was an all leather black Coach bag. I got it for under $20!! The most exciting part was having someone that works for Coach confirm that it is real!

It isn't the cutest one that I own, but I have been needing a black one!

What I got for Valentine's Day

Michael got me the Barse Turquoise ring that I really wanted for my right hand! It is really pretty, I married a great guy :-)

Ski Trip!

Michael's friend from school, Stacey turned 30 this weekend. To help her celebrate she and some of Michael's school chums went to Michigan for a Ski adventure. We had a blast even if we weren't the most talented group there.I even fall with pizazz!

Me and Michael

Left to right: Me, Michael, Stacey, Randy, Savita, and Alex

While the others headed to Stacey's parents house, Michael and I stayed the night in South Bend which was only about 30 minutes away. We stayed at a Hampton of course, and soaked our achy bodies in the hot tub.
Hanging out in the hotel room

Just what we needed...

another piece of furniture in our one bedroom apartment!

Michael and I bought a new bookcase for when we move in August. Instead of leaving it in the box Michael went ahead and put it together. So, here it is in all of its splendor.
