RT and i are moving out to my parent's house this weekend. we will be living there while our house is completely remodeled. we are so lucky that we get along as well as we do with my parents and that they are gracious enough to let us live with them. having somewhere to live that isn't a month to month apartment with college kids partying all around is more of a blessing than i can even describe

when i was a kid .. my parents bought the property that they live on now and my dad, brother, brother.in.law, and grandfather built a three car garage with an apartment on top. until i graduated high school it was our lake house but my parents always had the intention of building the main house and moving out there full time. RT and i will be living in the garage apartment

it is much smaller than what we are living in now but it is plenty for us to be perfectly comfortable. the space is set up so that when you walk in the door you are in a large room that is the living room, dining room and kitchen and then behind that is the bedroom and bathroom with a laundry room. having our own space like this will be so nice because it still allows us to have the privacy that we are used to while getting to spend more time with my parents as a bonus. it is going to be a big change but we are honestly excited about the move

one of the changes that is going to be a little bit of a challenge is the closet space. there are two small closets in the bedroom that were built to be weekend closets not live here full time closets {ha!}. so .. i have been scouring pinterest all morning for fun ideas of open air hanging space. if we do anything like this i want it to be fun and intersting to look at so that it isn't an eye sore that we have to live with for the next however many months. i have not run this idea by the parentals so i don't know if hanging something from the ceiling or walls would even be an option but even if i just lacquer a rolling rack with a fun color and hang all of our prettiest clothes on it that will be cute i think

anyway we have been packing our lives away in boxes and will be well on our way to a whole new world as of this sunday :)

happy wednesday!!
