Easter, Princesses, and the Open Road!

Here we are again, weeks later... I'm seriously no good at this blogging business! lol! So much has happened! Easter has come and gone, we saw princesses, and packed and moved to AZ! (among many other things that I can't remember right now because it has been so long!

Oh! First things first. DO NOT SEE 2112 (the movie). That is unless you want a good laugh or nap! It's super cheesy and not believable. Another movie that is a good laugh, but I wouldn't pay to see is Torque. Its an older movie with Ice Cube in it.. It's basically a motorcycle spin off of the fast and the furious. SUPER unrealistic, but funny because it's so out there! lol. Now onto business, or pleasure (whichever way you look at it!)

For Easter I did a little easter egg hunt for Eric. I got a little basket from target and hid about 8-9 eggs around the apartment! It was fun! He kept asking for hints and I kept telling him no and then found myself telling him hints later! Sneaky boy!

So before we got married I attempted tanning (I know, BAD idea! I was burnt and in the most tender of places too! :( The good side of the story is that I tried it about a month before the wedding. I wasn't even messing with my wedding day. I made sure I had plenty of time to fix what ever went wrong before the big day! Which brings me to the next segment of this post! Eric found my tanning goggles in my car on the way to church and was wearing them as sunglasses! lol!

Ok, you CAN'T tell Eric I put this picture on here! Right after I took it he said "this better not go on any blogs or Facebook!" So shhh!! This is Eric and his cousin Kalie. She is the happiest little girl I've ever seen! Not to mention the most fashionable (as you can see!) I think Eric kind of looks like Elton John! lol

Move day! In case you don't know how to load a moving van (which Eric and I didn't, as we have never had to move so far and so much stuff before!) U-haul provides this helpful little diagram on the side of their boxes. We did not get boxes from them, but I snapped this while we were waiting for the truck, just in case :)

This is Zizi (purple lion). He is my Betta fish. My friend Kara got him for me for my birthday almost 3 years ago! Crazy, I know! He had been sick for the previous month and a half before the move, and I was worried that he might not make it. This was his travel container. It actually worked very well, and HE MADE IT! He even almost ate yesterday! Which is HUGE because he hasn't eaten in about a month or more. I seriously do not know how he is still alive, but I'm so glad he is!

You can't move without getting a flat! The trailer that Eric's truck was on got a flat tire at Quartzsite. An hour or so later we were back on the road! "Thanks to you toe truck driver tire fixer guy."

You can't really tell from this picture, but it's the first tire...

Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for! Our NEW apartment (and by new I mean REALLY new!! not just new to us!) The apartment is brand new and no one has ever lived in it before! Here is our dining area.

Living room.

Kitchen

Different angle to the living room where you can see part of the spare room.

Throne room :)

And, last but not least.... The view

I just thought this pic looked cool. I tweaked it to make it look more like a painting.

And there you have it! We are officially residents of Arizona. Luckily, it hasn't been too hot yet! But it's supposed to get hot next week :/ Just today (or was it yesterday?) I told Eric that I was ready for it to be cool, and to have an ocean breeze :( Oh how I miss my cool ocean air! It's all good tho. It's a new adventure. Plus, I get to go to CA in September for my friend's wedding!!! I'll try to post again before then ;)
