Asheboro - Our New Home!

For those of you who haven't heard, we moved!....sort of.  Tyler was all set to do the next part of his Aldi training as a Store Manager in the store just 10 minutes away, when they decided to put him at a store that had just "dismissed" their manager in Asheboro, NC which is about 1.5 hours west of Raleigh (our REAL home.)  Whoop whoop!

Since Aldi is responsible for the move, they pay for our housing here in Asheboro, and first they suggested that we get an extended stay hotel room.  However, since Asheboro is rather small, no hotels had anything more than a microwave and mini-fridge!  So we did some research and found that renting a furnished apartment was much cheaper than a tiny hotel room anyways, so we have a wonderful 3 bedroom apartment!  My favorite part of it is the kitchen, cause there is more cupboard and counter space than I know what to do with.  Asheboro itself is....well...for those of you have been to Rigby, Idaho, it's a lot like that!  Theres a Walmart........and basically I won't really be leaving the apartment much!  

Anyhow...here are some fun pictures of the apartment and some silly Bug pictures.
Our happy Kitchen

I LOVE the gigantic counter.  LOVE IT!

Tyler brought home this box, and she LOVES it.

Unless it's "clicked" closed she pulls it down and climbs on in.

THIS is a great story.  We went in to Aldi with Tyler after it closed, and I couldn't get her to sit in the cart, cause the floors were no place for a crawling baby.  So, I put her in this box and put it in front of the shopping cart and pushed her around in it.  She didn't try to get out once!

what a good idea to put her in a box, and then push the box with a shopping cart. Has anyone told you that's a little odd? But its HILARIOUS and it WORKED! I can't wait to learn mom-secrets like this from you! haha
