House Guest

A few weeks ago we acquired a house guest. This means two things: 1. We can no longer use the extra bedroom to store our laundry, and 2. Josh can no longer walk around the house in his underwear (which I'm sure you wanted to know).

A missionary we knew while he was serving his mission in Fargo is now engaged to a girl who's family lives here. Whew, that was a mouthful. He came back to Fargo to work for the summer and Josh offered to let him stay with us as a back up plan. So basically one thing led to another and we now have a guy named Eric living in our third bedroom.

To be honest, it's been a little weird sharing our house with someone else. And after a few weeks, it's something we're still trying to get used to. We now have a roommate, a bathroom schedule, and a reservation system for the washer and dryer. Sounds like college all over again.

But it hasn't been all that bad. We really don't see him much since he spends most of his time with his fiance. And we get a free dog sitter out of the deal- a definite bonus.

One thing is for sure: it will be an interesting summer!

  1. You forgot to add a picture to this post! You could have Josh sneak into his room early one morning and take a pic of him sleeping (creepy, but definitely a roommate kinda picture!). xoxo

  2. Good luck!! My brother and his wife have had a roommate for about a year or so of their marriage. It's been another girl so not as weird of Shannon, but certainly interesting.
