The aftermath

Where did all this crap come from? Oh yeah, we haven't moved for 5 years and have had a baby. Wow, did we accumulate stuff since we moved last. I am understanding why people say they should move every few years to keep the clutter down.




Yes, the plants made the move on the last day. The old house got cleaned up and they migrated to town. So far, no casualties. But they are still in the exact same place, 3 days later too!

Bliss. My newly constructed pantry shelves. Can't wait to load them up with all my big kitchen stuff. Its amazing what you have in you kitchen buried way in the back of cupboards or stored in the basement. We'll see how much of it we use or if it just gets purged!


Paige unpacking a box of great stuff--books she's never seen before that we had in her closet. She's a little bigger now so they'll come into the rotation. Kept her busy for over an hour.

Finally

June 29th. First night in our new home. Finally. Its been a long two/three months since we signed a purchase agreement--I think it was early April. But all's well that ends well, I guess. No pictures yet as I just got internet hooked up yesterday. But Paige has had her first bath in the new tub. I just made our first real meal tonight--cheated last night and microwaved things. I did my first sink full of dishes. Its odd how these things are halfway exciting when you haven't done them in a while. I am slowly getting boxes unpacked and need a few days of living here to see where things should go. Its nice to slow down a little after a frantic month of going between two homes.
Thanks to all of our family and friends--its not enough to merely say thank you for all you've done; but we do appreciate it! We had a lot of help with the cleaning/packing/hauling/etc.
