We are adjusting to life in our new place, and it's so special, our life as newlyweds in our new apartment.
Canon still enjoys hanging out in his room, and chewing on his bone.
Nikon, can't jump on the bed, but we he gets up there, he perches for a while. You can see our wedding bedding that was given to us by the ladies in the wardrobe department at the office.
I absolutely love the colors and design of it!
Nothing is better in fall weather but a pipping hot cup of Earl Grey Tea, which Ruben will fix for me with out me having to ask! He's such a sweetie!
Last weekend Ruben had a performance in Wisconsin. Here is he, looking handsome in his suit, on his way out to his gig.
Later that evening we were invited to a dinner party at my former boss's house, David. David was my stage manager at Writers' Theatre that I assisted for 2 years. Every year, he has us over for dinner with my friend Tina Louise and her husband, Mike.

Here's David, fixing an amazing meal.
This is his Kitty, sitting in my chair and eyeballing the cocktails. :)
After dinner we sat around the table, drank wine, & caught up.
We also have taken more steps to make our apartment more our own. Surprisingly when we moved in, the color scheme of the apartment worked really well with our furniture and belongings. There were only a few rooms we wanted to change. One was the kitchen and the other the bathroom. It was decided that we would paint the kitchen first. We were able to get that accomplished, in our usual team work way. I painted the walls and Ruben painted the trim. It turned out great, and I really love the change from the light green to the purple.
Here we are together. We had an amazing time catching up and talking about work (she's an actress,) married life (been married for 7 years,) and all the trials and tribulations that go along with life. I love girlfriends that are honest and willing to share and even council. It's really refreshing to have friends like that who care! I even got a chance to show off my new wedding album, which I am very proud of. :)
I have given my notice at the Goodman Theatre to finish up working for them by the end of the month. I have enjoyed working there, but the schedule is killer. My goal is to focus on getting back into shape, as for the past few months, my health has taken a back burner. Time for me to focus on eating right and getting in my daily physical activity. I want to look fantastic for Heather's wedding in June next year, and gotta get started!

Ruben picked out this color at Home Depot, looking at their mistake cans, and got a gallon for only $5! The whole gallon was more than enough for the space!
This past weekend was the first time, I have been off the entire weekend. Finally, I was able to work on some house projects, and organize some of my own belongings. I'm really pleased with the way everything in turning out. I'm hoping by next month all will be in place, and we will have no more boxes lying around.
In the meantime, I took some time to catch up with a good friend, Suzanne. She came down early Saturday morning to a breakfast place in my neighborhood.

This week is busy, I'm going to an opening performance of The Seagull at the Goodman tonight, then I work the rest of the evenings this week, except Friday. Then, this Saturday afternoon/evening, I'm assisting another wedding for Five Grain Events. Then we also have some fun Halloween events to squeeze in this weekend as well! Pics to come soon!
I'm, also, hoping to get a video tour of the new apartment loaded soon!
Love to all!
Shannon
