Our New Home

When we first arrived here a lot of people told us that since it's the middle of PCS season that there was a good chance that we'd be stuck in a motel for weeks. Luckily for us we received an offer for stairwell housing just a few days after I arrived. We were given the keys so that we could take a look and we accepted the offer that same day. Many people told us that stairwell housing was awful but we didn't see a problem. The place came with a roof, bathroom, kitchen, and even a laundry room! The only possible downside that we can possibly think of is that we're on the third floor, that's a lot of stairs, and carrying up groceries is going to be a pain. But we're only here for three years so it's not a big deal. We had to wait a few more days before they'd let us move in because they had to do a walk through inspection with us and then we had to wait for some loaner furniture to be delivered since our stuff hasn't arrived yet. So in the end we were only in the motel for a grand total of 8 days.

Here's a little tour of our currently empty house.
First stop in our house is the laundry room. It's right inside the front door and to the right.



On the left is our rather large living room. 




On the right side after the laundry room we have our kitchen and dining room, which I'm very excited about. There is plenty of cabinet space, a lazy susan, and a pantry! 





Next we have a small hallway. There are two doors on the left and two on the right. On the right we have our main bathroom and a spare bedroom.




On the left we have yet another spare bedroom (that we have designated as Ditto's room) and our bedroom.




Our bedroom is the master bedroom and has a smaller bathroom in it. 




So if you're keeping track... We have been gifted with a three bedroom/two bathroom home. It's complete with a laundry room, has a balcony, and a room in the basement of the building for storage.

So this post is going to be short and sweet. Just something that I forgot to mention that we did last year, but I thought it was pretty cool...
