Inside of Our Martinez, CA Apartment

We are all unpacked and settled in.  I actually like have a one story small apartment again.  It is easy to clean and cozy!  The kids are adjusting well, thought Vienna still says that she misses Arizona, her house, and her friends.   I will post pictures of the outside, but here are a few of where we live.

This is the front half of our living room.  It is a rectangle, so the front half is the tv room and the back half is the kids play area.

It is nice to have carpet on the kids play area.  Hopefully it helps drown some of the noise for the neighbor down stairs.
This is our dining room.  We brought that cupboard with us since we had bought it for the house, but never attached it.  It makes for a nice pantry.

This is my kitchen.  It is small, but cute and it works.  
This is our small bathroom.  Leaves much to be desired, but it will do.

This is our bedroom.  It is quite large.  We even have the computer desk in there.  We only have a very small closet for us to use.  My shoes are stacked on top of each other.  Other than that, it is a great room with lots of windows.  

This is the kids' new bunk beds.  Vienna decided she was too scared to sleep on the top, so we put both kids on the bottom bunk.  They are too long to sleep feet to feet, so we put them horizontally on the bed.  It works nicely.

The kids room is so large that it fits all of the toys.  It's nice to have a place for everything and everything in it's place.
We have a small deck off of the family room where we have stored a few things, but after a huge garage sale, we fit nicely in 900 square feet.  There's a lot of love in this little place!
