We’re in the new house! Our shelves are empty, our garage is full, we don’t have a refrigerator and no one seems able to provide us with a key to our mailbox, but…we’re in!
We started the process of buying a house on February 8, and have been going full steam ever since then. It was even more work than we had anticipated, and the work isn’t over yet. This was our first time buying a house, and our first time moving with children, and it has been a very different experience than any of our prior moves. It has been fun, exhausting, intimidating, exciting, and generally very emotional. Good times!
We are so very happy to be here, and I’m looking forward to getting settled and making this place home. Some Scotch tape and kid art should do the trick.
It already felt like home to me!
Thanks! As long as I stay in this cozy little corner in the family room, it feels like home to me, too. But then I wander into the rooms with furniture turned backwards, lots of boxes, pictures leaning against the walls…and I quickly retreat back to my corner.
Me too!
And it’s coming along, and we’re SO dang excited that we drive by you guys so often – I think it’s gonna be a GREAT summer…. Oh, and your home is WONDERFUL!
