Our Home

After we got engaged, Tony was offered an internship with Walmart, Inc. We knew it would be a great opportunity for him and his future career so we decided we would do it. I say "we" because it has been a big change for the both of us. After our honeymoon we stayed a few days with Tony's parents and then packed up and drove two days to Wal-Mart's headquarters--Bentonville Arkansas.
Wal-Mart hooked us up with a really great apartment that is fully furnished with everyone down to dishes and linens. On top of that, the complex has two pools and a gym. They also pay a big portion of the rent. We're really lucky! Hopefully it doesn't set our expectations for life too high...we'll be moving back into a regular college apartment in the fall (one that costs more than what we're paying now) so that will be a good reminder that life isn't this easy!

We really like the Bentonville area. It is very beautiful and has the "small town feel" even though everything you would need is within 15 minutes. We really enjoy it here!
