Two things...

One...We finally found a place to live!! I didn't want to just settle for something so we looked until we found an apartment that had everything we wanted.  It has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a washer/dryer, garage, and it's in Del Mar which is close to Ben's office. It's perfect! Although it makes me sick how much we will be paying for it, we were asking for it when we moved to southern California :)
and Two...I was laid off from my job with Pinnacle :( My boss finally called and told me that due to licensing issues I could no longer work from California. Total bummer since we really need the extra money right now, but at the same time I am so THRILLED that I never have to talk to another jerk/idiotic sales rep or technician on the phone again!(knock on wood) I'm really not looking forward to finding and starting a new job...really REALLY not looking forward to it. But oh well, ya gotta do whatcha gotta do. Maybe I'll actually find a job I enjoy? Wouldn't that be nice.
That's all for now! Heading to Carlsbad tomorrow to watch my adorable niece. Can't wait!

Dreaming...

I like to dream sometimes that Ben and I will have a bunch of money someday to build and design a house together. However, I think that we will be able to at least decorate a little in our new apartment (wherever it may be) when we get settled. I've been looking for inspiration on pinterest.com  and found some colors for our bedroom that I really like...

Kindof a navy/slate blue with mustard/gold, gray, and white. Very pretty, but not too feminine (for the husband) I think :) We're going to try to decorate on a tight budget and make as many things on our own as we can...we'll see how all the DIY decorating goes! I'm excited.

Some more interior design to look at...

I would rather...

"I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, Than to live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is."
I liked this quote that Ben's Grandma sent in an email. Although I KNOW there's a God so I guess I'm good to go ;) haha.
