Above, I am standing in front of our apartment building...
...and Maria and I take a breather.
Now that we have been here almost a week, we are settling nicely into our new home. It is so nice to both be off of work and school for the next three (actually, make that two) weeks and are enjoying much needed R&R. We live near downtown San Jose, within a 10 minute bike ride of both our schools (Lincoln and San Jose State University). The HP Pavilion is only about 8 blocks away, and New Kids On The Block is playing there in October. Tina Turner too!
Wendy went above and beyond with the contact paper. Below, Benji is getting a little crazy and contact papering her!
Yesterday we finished painting two of the walls, got the internet hooked up and got our parking passes. Here is Benji taping before the paint job. In the background is our patio, which I am very excited about.
So we are pretty much all moved in, with only a few loose ends to tie up. We are all ready for company! Come visit us! Did I mention that there is a lovely day spa right on our street?
And lastly, here is the official tour of the apartment.
Thanks for blogging Amy. Awesome apartamento. Any chance we can get some video of Benji's trip to the Watergarten?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to share your newest exploits with friends and family. Having been at the new "pad" in San Jose, I can share that's it's is a lovely neighborhood with lots of mature trees and walking distance to all of the essentials. It's a perfect place for Benji and Amy to work, study and play. It was a joy to share the adventures of moving.
