Considering that I only have about three weeks until my lease is up at my current apartment, it's definitely a relief. The icing on the cake? I actually really like the place. It has three bedrooms, a fireplace, walking trails in the neighborhood, appliances made in the past 10 years, and even a little fenced-in backyard area for Charlie - that means no more running down two flights of stairs and around the back of the apartment building to take him out to the bathroom five times a night! Now we can just open the back door and let him out, sans leash. I'm getting spoiled just thinking about it.
Here are a few pictures of it (from before we've moved in, of course):

| The front of the townhouse - we even got an end unit. Not the most modern colors, but I don't hate them. |
 |
| A real fireplace? Dylan's going to be chopping some wood this winter. |
 |
| This is our cute little backyard. You can't see it, but there's a grassy section down on the right. It's not very big, but it's already better than a 3rd floor apartment. |
Lucky for us (but not so much for my wallet), we have a few days between moving in to the new place and moving out of my old one, so we won't have to pack up, clean the apartment, move to the townhouse, and unpack enough things for it to be liveable all in one day. Even better, both Dylan's and my families are pretty generous in offering to help with the move. I'd do it myself, but I don't think my little Chevy Cobalt is going to be able to transport all of the furniture, or even pull a small trailer.
I'm excited to move in next month and finally be able to delve into my 'DIY' Pinterest board for decorating ideas! Here's hoping that I'll still be blogging by then and can actually show them off (unless they fail, that is).
