our humble abode...

This last weekend was Fall break for SUU students and faculty. We had a glorious five day weekend. On Sunday, Jake and I went to Fillmore to go to a friends mission farewell and to spend some time with my family. It was fun. I always love spending time with my family. Then Monday, Jake was back to work and I was sitting at home trying to be a good housewife. I cleaned, did (a very minute amount of) homework, and made dinner for us. Since I had nothing else to do, I decided to take some pictures of our little home. Here they are!

As you walk through the front door, you will walk straight into the living room...

 ...walk a little further and if you look to your right you will see the kitchen...

 ...a few more steps and you have now entered the bedroom...

...you have now experienced the humble home of the Barton's.

The quilt on our bed was made by the Relief Society of my home ward. Yes, there is a Canada Cape Breton Island flag on our wall. :) No, we don't have built in drawers under our sink. And Yes, that is the front door. Our little house is little, but perfect for Jake and I. It's our first home and we love it!

Over our fall break, we bought a pet. No it's not a dog, a cat, a horse, or a hamster. It's a fish! A male Betta fish to be exact. His name is Pete and he has made a great addition to our family! He is dark/light blue and maroon. He lives in a pineapple in a little fish bowl. :)

 Pete!

The pineapple looks huge, but it's really not. It stands about 3 inches tall and is about 2 or so inches wide. I think it's great! We love our Pete! :)
