Because it was so hard to find a place to live for such a short period of time, while i waited to marry my sweetheart, I couldn't be more greatful for the girls that shared their couch, beds and closet with me. These cute girls were so sweet they didn't even charge me rent! So generous! (especially when considering how expensive it is to live in DC.) I hope to find a way to repay them!
Good Bye my Harry Potter Closet!

Wow, you look comfy - all balled up in the fetal position, laying on a stack of blankets. Haha. You are too adorable and so grateful for your 5 sq feet. That's why we love you!
I think I selt in a closet when I was really young up at East Canyon.:0) At least you will have fun stories to tell your kids :0)
you're getting married this week!!! though i have a regular human-sized bed, I understand the excitement you're facing.
You really slept there? Thats funny! Im so excited for you to be able to live with your hubby soon!
oh my gosh, i totally know how you feel! I lived everywhere but anywhere before I got married... it wasn't fun, but let me tell you.... you are ready to enjoy the best treat ever... sleeping by your sweetie every single night! its so worth the wait. I can't wait to see you on Sat! Best of luck, and remember what I told you... just soak it all in...
Oh my goodness -- crazy girl!! I ended up renting my own 3-bedroom apartment for $250 in Provo while we waited because they let me create the perfect timing on the lease to time it with the wedding. Shows you how cheap things are in Provo. Too bad the timing and place was wrong!!
Heehee, I like that. You are great. And you're getting MARRIED in, like, two days. YES!!
Hi Ali - you have no idea who I am - my name is Sarah and I went to high school with Lincoln. I was looking at Stephenie Parke's blog and I saw a link to Essigs ... anyways, that's how I found yours. I didn't know Lincoln was getting married so congrats to the both of you!!!
Sleeping in a closet for a man = true love. Way to stick it out. You are such a trooper. :-)
