When she goes back to school in Arizona next month, she and 3 other girls will be sharing an apartment. To say that these 4 girls are EXCITED would be a hugh understatement. They're literally counting down the days.
Not counting down the days for school to start, or of leaving family at home, but counting down the days until apartment time. And really, can you blame them!?!
I hope the apartment will turn out to be a good idea. Each girl has her own bedroom and bath with a shared living room, dining room, and kitchen. They have a washer and dryer in the apartment also. Each girl signed her own contract with the apartment complex and is responsible to them for getting their rent in on time. Just this fact alone made it ok with hubby and I. Now they just have to worry about splitting up the utilities which hopefully won't be any big deal.
Did I mention they're EXCITED!
We've been doing a little shopping the last few days. We've purchased everything from silverware to sheets to salt & pepper shakers. Here's a sampling of what we've been storing in our guest room and what we have to haul back to AZ next month...
Speaking of our guest room, I wanted to leave you with this. I bought a picture holder and I use it to hold all of my "good mail" I receive from by blogging friends. If you've ever sent me a note or a card, it's here, in our guest room for all to see. I display them proudly!

I BET she is excited! She is so darling... you are going to miss her!!! I also love that you get snail mail from your blogging friends!
Dear Linda,
How wonderful that the girls are not having to depend on the others to keep their rent paid, that will make it so much easier!
Looks like you found some really wonderful things for her apt. You are a great Mom is all I can say!
How are the plans going for the move up my way??? Let me know how things are going, I would love to send you a card to go on your holder, send me your address and I will get on off to you! I love sending cards, it is so personal and fun!
XO,

How exciting for your daughter and her friends! May daughter did the same thing when she was in college with two of her friends and everything worked out just fine, they were very responsible. And they are still best friends to this day!
I love how you displayed all your cards and notes! Cute idea.
So sorry to hear about your dear Uncle, I will keep your Aunt in my prayers.
You are such a thoughtful and generous person Linda.
Hope you have a blessed week!!

Linda, are they excited?
So cute.
Love the card holder.
I remember those days! I lived in the dorm on the sorority floor for three years. THe last summer I was in an apt. and loved it!
I love the black toile pillow on the bed!!
I loved apt living when I was in college. I know she will have a good year.
Love all your good mail on display!
I can see that she's excited and who can blame her. I'm sure it will be hard on you though.
Everytime I read about a mom who is able to DRIVE kids out to school... I get a little envious. How wonderful. Annelise will be in an apartment this year. She is over the top excited too.
How exciting!
I did see that you have the important stuff...TP!
I wish I could be in AZ next month to meet you.
I love that you have a guestroom with all your blogging friends in it!
You must be one amazing lady
Hi Linda:
We have been shopping like crazy too for my little girls send off to ASU. Sounds like your daughter is going to have a wonderful opportunity to learn the ropes of life and being responsible for herself. Can't wait to meet you and your sweet girl in about 2 1/2 more weeks. GO SUN DEVILS!!!

Oh my, this makes me realize that my Luci will be all grown up before I know it!!
Ohhh! How wonderfully exciting. Brings back the memories, doesn't it?
Look at all her wonderful goodies! What a terrific and fun year it will be for her, and a lifetime of memories of her own.
