WARNING: Snoozer post ahead.  No, really.  You might just wonder why you stopped by today.

Some of you have inquired about our place, so this post is for you.

If you’re wondering if I’m talking about you . . . well, I might be.

If you asked me to post pictures, or heck, even thought, “Hey, I wish she would post some pictures of her furnished rental in that cool building.”  I’m talking to you.  :)

I photographed this apartment for the apartment manager.  We actually rented this place sight unseen (I swore I’d never do that again, but what can I say) because there were no pictures available of the place.

Keep in mind that we do actually live here.  Normally, toys are strewn about, children are popping in and out of the rooms, and Paris is usually peering  around the corner.

This is the front door and the longest hallway ever. The hallway connects to Dallin’s room on one end and Hannah’s on the other.  This runs the length of the building.

The kitchen is in the middle of the house, which means there are no windows.

I thought this would drive me crazy, but as you can see, we have a lot of fluorescent lights which make our house as bright as noon day even when it’s midnight.

The nook.

This apartment used to be a telemarketing business.  That means we have a false ceiling, with a lot of lights, and tons of outlets.

So, there you have it.  :)

Wow, there are a TON of lights! Is there any natural lighting in the living room?

Wow. It is very, very clean. How on earth do you live in a place that is that clean?

Did you bring a crib for Dallin or is he sleeping in a twin-size bed these days? :)

Are you coming back soon? ‘Cuz I miss you, though I am thoroughly enjoying looking at all your amazing pictures. I’m super excited FOR you that the bookstore wants to sell your prints. That’s awesome!

There is no natural light in the living room either, but the commercial lighting package lights it up nicely. :)

The house is only clean for the pictures . . . I rearranged things to make the house “appear” un-lived so the owners could have pictures to use when advertising this place for rent. And Dallin DOES sleep in a Pak’n'Play. :) It was just an eye sore for the pictures. :)

Those sofas are awesome and I love the commercial lighting!
