Can You Say SMALL?!?!?

Dinky, dwarf, little, pint-size, slight, micro, minute, teeny, inadequate, skimpy, sparse, miniature, microscopic, insufficient....and the list goes on

All synonyms for the word small....all describe the size of Alyssa and Sarah's room this year! Not only did they not get their choice of dorm hall, I've seen walk-in closets bigger than their room!!

I'm so glad they are such good friends, or it might not be pretty! Their room last year now seems like a banquet hall!!

We ran to Ollie's after we got there to get a rug for the room....an 8x12 foot rug pretty much covered the entire floor!! Initially, the chest of drawers were in the closets...now that did add a little extra space in the room, but having them in there, made it tough to fit much in the closets. Those quickly came out!

They are tucked away in a small wing of the building, with narrow hallways and a bathroom that is in another hallway and up about five steps. To get to their room with all their belongings we had to get in an elevator to the second floor, get out, go into another elevator to the fourth floor, get out, go up about five steps, walk down a hallway, go down about five steps and walk down the narrow hallway!

Hopefully, Alyssa will take a few pics once they have the room all put together...when we left, it was still a huge mess and there was quite a bit to be put away yet.

Large spacious hallway (We were all standing out in the hallway, as both dad's were struggling with laying the carpet in the room)

Their door

Looking into the room (This was prior to rearranging the beds, desks, dressers, etc. trying to fit everything in)

Sarah, in the closet, attempting to get the dresser out of the closet!

That's Alyssa's desk on the left...I have no clue where she's gonna go with all that stuff!!

Resting after the move in (Note Alyssa's new comforter)

We all want to know more about that last photo. Does it also have something to do with Adam leaving Alyssa's birthday dinner early? You really can't leave us in the dark about this!!!

I like the new comforter, and the male model in the photo-he looks very comfortable there amongst the pink!
