Blast From The Past: Part 3

Posted by thisyounghouse

December 27, 2007

We’ve returned from our Christmas in West Virginia just in time to grace you with the third and final part of our “Places We Used to Live” video series. This time it’s a new city (Richmond, VA) and a new arrangement (cohabitation). Ooh la la.

Our First Apartment Together in Richmond was a pretty cookie-cutter one-bedroom in a pretty cookie-cutter suburban apartment complex. That didn’t stop us from being over the moon about finally sharing a home together AND getting way more space for less than half of our combined rent in NYC.

Here are the goodies to watch for this time:

The giddiness in Sherry’s voice as she excitedly points out features we’d probably yawn about these days
Our rag-tag collection of free / donated furniture (give us a break - we moved from NYC in a minivan)
The high ceilings (the reason we opted for the 3rd floor)
A much more fully stocked kitchen than in Sherry’s NYC apartment
More album cover artwork thanks to the band OK Go
Our DIY version of these bird wall decals from blik (we cut birds out of blue manila folders and taped them to the wall).

Ok, we now promise to return our attention to the present day. Some fun posts to look forward to: gifts we gave each other, booty we received from others, and stuff we scored during all those fabulous post-holiday sales.
