The Living Quarters.

So we are now permanently living in Charlotte! I have a job at Southwest Middle (near SC) and Bradley has another year at UNCC. Our new apartment is literally around the corner from the old apartment complex we lived at with our friends. Bradley and I were neighbors:) I like it because I didn't have to completely leave everything from college. I still go to the same grocery store, pharmacy, gas station, etc. It helps ease the shock of the life transitions a bit. Here is a tour...

Our kitchen! Yes, that is purple track lighting:)

Dining Area..the table was my grandmothers...her dad gave it to here when she got married! It's almost 60 years old:) We re-stained it.


Living Room...Charity..here are your couches!...also the pillows and coffee table are from IKEA..I love that store! and it's only 5 minutes from us!

I'm a Teacher!

A few days ago, I received my teaching license. So, I'm officially licensed to teach! However, there is a problem. If you look closely, it says Middle Grades Mathematics..and highly qualified too! That is a lie my friends! I have not taken a math class since my Freshmen year. I definitely do not need to teach it:) I called and the lady laughed at me saying she's never had anyone call and say they had an extra certification. There must be a lot of liars out there:) Surely I am not the first! It was suppose to say Language Arts. I passed the Praxis for it in April and didn't realize it would already be on there. There is another one on its way in the mail. You may be asking why it still says Caitlin King. I applied for it in May and I still don't have my new SS card! Anyone else been through this before? Geeez..what a process:)

Honeymoonin'

The morning after our wedding, we headed to the airport at 3:30am! We flew down to the Bahamas for a whole week:) We stayed at the Sandals in Nassau. It was awesome! We ate..A LOT! It was a great feeling to eat a 3 course meal and then get up and leave. We loved snorkeling. We went several times and the 2nd time a photographer went with us to snap the pic below.

One day we went to an island to pet and play with some dolphins. We have a pic with one kissing me on the cheek but I haven't downloaded it yet. It was one of our favorite days.

The water was beautiful!

Our favorite restaurant was the Italian one called Casanova. It was VERY authentic. I felt like I was back in Roma.

There were lounge chairs to lay on at night with fire pits. It was very romantic!:)
