Is it mine? Is it really mine?


Its just so cute!
Weighted keys...
looks nicer than a keyboard...
Must be my very own digital Yamaha CLP950! **Sigh. About this time last year I had a keen desire to rekindle my piano playing abilities, (which had slowly deteriorated after the age of 12). For Christmas I requested only $$ for my new piano. I was generously rewarded with a fair share of funds and days became weeks and weeks became months. I looked for a piano, I promise I did... but I got distracted somewhere between looking and purchasing. Until yesterday. The two concepts finally converged and VIOLA! I have a perfectly lovely piano in my living room. It is my new love, and, as Jared has calculated, our 3rd most expensive asset. Ha!

You'd never know it borders the ghetto





Just a couple of outside shots of our apt building. We're top right.

I bet I cried more than all of you combined during this season premiere. Couldn't help it....

and a fun friday was had by all



No work, a lovely day, the outdoors to enjoy it all in and my very own Jared.What can I say? The boy makes me happy... every day.

Our Mansion

Of course its not, but you'd be amazed at how upscale a 2 bedroom with dining room AND living room can feel. I'm embarrassed to reveal my lack of photography skills, but.... here we go. A tribute to our new apartment, (minus Jared's "Cougar Den." He has yet to clean it up :))

Jared found this lovely yucca tree for free on Craigslist, and that nothing but our brute strength and our car's sun roof are responsible for its perfect position in our living room

A fake fireplace of my very own!
You can't tell from this picture but the view of the sun rising every morning is spectacular.

Shhhh!!!


I want to win this backpack for Jared! And he really never reads this so if I win I'm pretty confident he'll be surprised. If you want a chance to win a cool Ogio pack too--don't go to the following website. You'll spoil my chances. j/k. Really. I love this blog for coupons and things!
