Suite Life of the Russells
We have a little under two weeks till we move into our house and time is taking it's sweet time to pass. I honestly did not think I would hate living in a hotel. Maids making your bed and changing your sheets daily & never having to clean?? How could it ever be bad? It has been absolutely TERRIBLE!! A couple nights ago a man three doors down fell asleep in his bathtub high as a kite and ended up falling asleep. The bathtub overflowed and flooded not only his room but two rooms down and across the hall. Luckily, the flooding stopped right before our room, BUT, it smells of mildew and mold and anything else you can imgaine. Just when I thought things could not get any worse our toliet stopped working and we had to be moved to another room which took forever to move all of our stuff! On the bright side of things my car arrived a week early and I could not have been more excited to see it in my entire life! We had to go through the whole process of getting the car registered in Hawaii. Registering a car in Hawaii costs about $200-300 but they give the military a break since we aren't "here by choice" and we ony have to pay about $20. So my cute little focus now has rainbow Hawaiian plates!
We went around to furniture stores looking for furniture since we really dont have very much being newlyweds. Colton & I picked out most the furniture we are going to buy and are very excited about it! (Of course, I am more then him) We've picked out a 7 piece bedroom set, a couch & love seat set, 4 piece entertainment center, 6 piece dining room set, and a rug for all under $3,500. I may not be an expert in buying brand new furniture but i believed it to be a good deal! We have already purchased the dining room set and we will most likely buy the couch & love seat set and hold off on buying any more furniture. One of our biggest priorities that we really need to focus on is getting Colton a form of transportation, because, It will be hard for both of us to have a job and have me going to school on top of it all. We found a car that is very promising so we have our fingers crossed that we get it!

I absolutely promise that some day, you will laugh about pretty much all of this. It may not be this month or this year...but sometime well before you're 40, you will think back and wonder how on earth you accomplished so much at such a young age. But look at you! On the adventure of a lifetime with the man you love, and making the best of some uncomfortable situations. I'm proud of you!
