This Just In...

WE DON'T HAVE TO BE HOMELESS WHEN WE GET MARRIED!!! Cleve and I have been apartment shopping and found one that we loved. We filled out an application...but were disappointed when we went about a week without hearing anything back from them. We decided we better start looking again because we really didn't want to be homeless. So with more disappointment and frustration we felt our search was hopeless. Everything that we could afford was not only ghetto looking, but basically in the ghetto of Orem. It would have been scary to live there. But while studying for our finals we got a phone call from the lady at the apartment that we loved. She was calling to let us know that WE GOT THE APARTMENT!!!! I was SO excited and SO relieved. So our search has come to an end and we are very happy about that! We don't have any pictures yet...but this is it in a nut shell. It is a 1-bed, 1-bath (I know, I know thats small but hey its really nice and we probably don't need much more space then that to start out). It includes a washer and dryer...YAY!!!! Uh... thats about it. We get to start moving in on May 24th and Cleve will start living there  June 1... and then I obviously will start living there once we are married! We are SUPER excited!!! Our contract is a month-to-month contract which is really nice, so if you guys hear of a great deal anywhere please let us know!!! : D

COULD YOU HELP US KEEP AN EYE OUT, WE'RE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO LIVE

We have been throwing around different ideas of where to live and have vetoed the idea of a cardboard box. We tried looking on craigs list, ksl, and in the classifieds for a place to live and were unsuccessful. Cleve needs to move out of the place he is living now, so we are hoping to be able to have him move in towards the beginning or middle of May. We would like to live somewhere between Orem and Lehi (Lindon, Pleasant Grove, American Fork). We aren't sure how realistic it is, but we are hoping to be able to keep it under $650/month. We know it is OUR job to find a place to live but we thought it would be great if people could keep their ears open and let us know if they hear of anything. Thanks! : )
