The Front of the House


We were finally able to take a photo of the front of the house. That means both cars have actually found a home in the garage.

We still have stuff to put away and boxes to unpack and things to put on the wall. I am hoping to get a handle on everything before Thanksgiving.

Moved In






We closed at 8:30 on Friday, September 9. Then we started moving. And moving. And moving. We got several loads moved on Friday including beds. We spent the night in the new house.

Then with a small crew, we got the rest of our not well-packed belongings moved. Our garage is packed full. We have boxes every where. I am thinking by the end of September, things might be put away.

I have tons of photos. I do not have a picture of the front of the house yet. I am waiting until we have stuff moved out of the way and cars in the garage. The house is blue-gray. It looks different in photos than in real life. I will post when I have them.

The children are thrilled to have their own rooms and a nice space for watching tv, playing the Wii (which is not working) and getting on the computer. I can't tell you how excited I am to have a Master bathroom!

September 5 Update






So we are on the countdown. The tentative close date is September 9. Elaine is sure they will have it finished. I'm on the fence. The outside of the house still needs to be painted. The wood floor is not finished. Most of the tiles need grout and the grout needs to be sealed.

On the bright side, most of the electrical work is finished. The furnace and heat pump have been installed. The sod is in.

We are impatiently waiting to see if it actually gets finished. I have been having bad house dreams.
