Moving Out - Peace out Pulling Courts!!!

It's kind of sad to say but the only pictures that I really have of our old apartment is when we were moving out and it is either really dirty or just barely cleaned and so begins the journey...

These are kind of the before and in between pictures, but they're just of the livingroom which looks just as messy as the other rooms.
Notice all of the boxes we have, we went one night to Walmart like at 1:30 in the morning and then went searching in the recycling bins too. There would have been a funny picture of Eric in one of the bins with his legs sticking out but of course I didn't have the camera and I had my cell phone but since it was dark it wouldn't have shown up. But here's a kind of good one, but still not as good. The Friday that we were checking out of our apartment is the day that we finished packing and cleaned out the apartment. We asked my mom, Tia, and Amanda to help us clean the apartment. Before they came I didn't think that it would take that long but it did, and thanks to them, they helped us clean it way faster than it would have taken with just me and Eric and we made check out time just in time. Thanks so much you guys I don't know what we would have done without you. You guys are awesome!

This is the apartment that Eric and I move into when we were first married and the only one we have stayed in, so we have stayed here for almost 2 years.

Here are some pictures of the clean and empty apartment.

Here is our bedroom with the heater that melted my laundry basket and made the bedroom smell like burnt plastic for a while every time we used the heater.

Our sweet cupboards and tiny desk in the bedroom
Our vanity with the shelves in the background.
Our sweet bathroom (not really) with the little tub, and the jetpack toilet (people who have lived in Pulling Courts will understand). Also goodbye to the broken fan that has been broken for a long time.
Here is the stupid light switch that behind the door (hence stupid light switch) with the cover that has been broken for a while.
Here's the livingroom. If you look really closely you can tell where the rug has laid down for the past two years.
Last but not least the sweetest kitchen ever! (if you lived in the 70s and liked green appliances). So as you can see our appliances are an ugly green and not the normal regular size, but mini. Our stove has buttons instead of knobs and can't fit a cookie sheet in it all of the way so the door wouldn't close and it's too small to be able to put anything in sideways. Our freezer is half the size that it looks right now which is small enough.
Here is the picture of our apartment from the outside as we are leaving it forever!!!! Goodbye Pulling Courts, and thanks for all of the good memories.

After we had checked out we went to Eric's parent's house in Blackfoot to stay the night before our journey to Las Vegas the next day. Later that night we packed our car, pretty much full to the brim with no extra space.

Here are some pictures of our car the next morning before we started of early in the morning. The first one is of the view from the front seat looking back. The second one is the trunk and the last one, you can kind of see how packed it is from the outside.
