Saying Goodbye to Fairmount

We moved into our Fairmount apartment on August 1, 2012, exactly one month before getting married. We have truly loved living in our little apartment, on what I believe is the best street in Fairmount. Our only complaint has been that the space is great for two people, but not for entertaining. Below is a picture of our adorable little living room, big enough for Timmy and us :)

Timmy was the star of every Craigslist picture!

Our bedroom was a bright blue when we bought the house so I found my favorite Benjamin Moore gray, which I think turned out really well and I will definitely use in the new house. The headboard was a Pinterest find and Andrew did such a nice job on making it from scratch! The Ikea closet came with the apartment and I am so looking forward to real closets. I have really disliked that big clunky thing!

Luckily, our street is very quiet but the black out shades were necessary due to the street lights.

The bathroom is going to be the hardest selling point for this house. Luckily, I am gone Monday-Thursday, so Andrew and I haven't gotten into a single bathroom fight. Sharing a bathroom of this size has definitely made us very close :)

Timmy's favorite room

The Cherry Blossoms blooming in April were a beautiful surprise! Coming home to this after being in -25 temperatures in Minneapolis really made me fall in love with the street. My favorite experience was taking a picture of a group of kindergartners learning about Cherry Blossoms. I took a picture of the group as they all said "Cheeeessseeeee," and it still makes me smile to think about.

We will never forget our first year as a married couple living in Fairmount. I am looking forward to having our new house and making many new memories.
