First Post!

I decided to start a blog for us. I'm hoping Allan will make updates on it too, but we'll see. He's not much of a computer person unless it's for games.

We are currently living in an apt. in Midvale. It's very small, but perfect for only two people. It was a little scary when I first saw it, but my family surprised us by doing a massive cleaning job on it & painting every single wall (and what was the blue cement floor) while I was out of town. It looks great now! It was the perfect wedding present.

The apartment has it's little quirks and I find them hysterically funny. My favorite is that if we use the microwave with the lights on, it'll blow a fuse. Allan discovered that if you turn the power level down, the lights will flicker, but won't go out. However, to make popcorn, all the lights have to be off. When we first came across this little quirk, I couldn't stop laughing. Allan was not so amused. Luckily, he's come to terms with it and now gets a kick out of it. I guess it'll be one of those great "when we were first married" stories we tell our kids about years down the road.
