Public Transportation and Art Festivals

On Saturday we went to an art and music festival. Sean wanted to take the train so we could save the headache and money on finding downtown parking. I haven't ever taken public transportation before (yeah, yeah I'm from a small town ok!) So I was really excited! We took 3 different trains to get there it was fun! I was kinda scared of all the weird people that use the train here though, I held on to Sean the entire time and when we were at stations I was never more than 2 inches away from him! He thought that was funny... I didn't. I would NEVER ride it without him! :) The art festival was cool, as cool as an art festival can be. It was neat to see all of the artwork, some of it was really good, it was all REALLY expensive, of course.

Chinese food Celebration

We have been married for 10 months already! And one year ago today Sean proposed to me! So he took me out tonight for dinner. We went to a Chinese restaurant that one of Sean's co-workers recommended. He was feeling really hungry and ordered the dinner for 4 people, plus an extra side of chow mein! Which was A LOT! We barely made a dent in all the food. There were bigger parties of people all around us with less food... our waitress probably thought we were completely crazy. We had 5 take out boxes stuffed full, a chinese carton of fried rice, and two bowls of soup to go, that we took home with us! It was really funny! The food was delicious though, which is good because we will be eating it for a very, very long time!!

Some food was already gone by the time I took a picture, and the soup isn't even in the picture either!

Left-overs!

Bedroom Furniture



We got some matching bedroom furniture today! Our room is finally starting to not look like a bachelor pad! We found this used bedroom set for really cheap the night stands hadn't ever been put together so they were new. We got the bed frame and both night stands all for the price of one. I wish I had a before picture too. The night stands we had before were ones we had found on sidewalks with free signs on them they were not matching at all and the drawers on one of them didn't slide so it was always a production to get anything in or out of them! and our bed was just on a metal frame which we didn't mind too much. This set probably isn't going to be what we will have forever but it is perfect for us right now. 
*Next project is to paint our dresser to match and find some lamps and curtains for free or cheap! We will keep you updated...
