Barefoot in the Park


If you are a young married couple this is the movie for you. Starring the beautiful Jane Fonda and the Dashing Robert Redford. Its about a Newly Wed couple that experiences all of lifes "challenges" that marriage can bring. Its dramatic, funny, cute and quite the perfect story. The whole movie takes place in there very little one bedroom apartment. Curtis and I can quite relate to this couple because we have recently moved into a small one bedroom of our own.
When we found this apartment I loved the price and location so much I didn't worry too much about what it looked like inside. I knew that Curtis went and looked at it on an earlier day and said that I would like it. I took his word and was fine. The day that I first saw this apartment was the day we moved in. All I had to picture the place was this floor plan you see here and the thought that 500 sq. ft. was a pretty decent size.
Thank heaven for mothers. My mom and dad Kenny helped Curtis and I move in. My mom could tell the way I was feeling. All I could think was how SMALL the place was. The dining room was not a room, it was an area that you could try and fit a table with 4 chairs. The bedroom... there is 12 inches that separate the end of my bed and the wall. I will soon post pictures so you can get a better visual. Now, the reason why I was thankful for my mother is all she kept saying was.... "
oh lisa, you will like it much better once your things are inside and put exactly where you want them."
"Oh just Wait, you will make it look so pretty!"
And you know what.... she was right! I LOVE my place! I love how cute it is.

I have linked the last scene of "Two Weeks Notice" Hugh Grant will tell you exactly how big my apartment is...
