Fall is in full swing in the neighborhood!

Welcome to our little home in Somerville, Mass!

This is the perfect time of year to share some photos of where we are living, for all of our friends and family who haven't been able to make it out to visit so far. The neighborhood is so vibrant with jaw-dropping fall foliage and I wanted to capture it before winter creeps in to stay. Our little apartment is one of four in this home. The owners occupy the first and half of the second floor of the right side of the home. The other half up the upstairs is where our studio apartment is located, and the left half of the house is made up of two apartments, one upstairs and one downstairs. We found this place to be so unique and even though we are VERY cozy in a whopping 500 sq feet, this apartment has been our first home as a married couple and I love the fact that our story together begins here. 

And here is the inside! Yes, it is sort of a mess, but you know what - that's life! In such a small amount of space we have learned to be OKAY with the clutter. We have even set up our bike trainer in the back and use it pretty frequently as winter is now creeping upon us, and its an easy way to get some exercise in (and stay sane) when the snow starts to pile up high outside. As you can see, our bed is lofted and we have to climb a ladder to get to it. I think if you would have told me as a kid that one day I would FINALLY get that bunk bed that I always wanted.. I would have been pretty ecstatic! I'm not sure many people can boast about sharing a bunkbed with their husband/wife their first year of marriage- and that to me is just pretty darn cool.
