The best part of moving…

is shop­ping for stuff for the new house!  We’ve been using an old kitchen table that we got from a fam­ily friend for $5 for the last 7 years.  It worked well, but I can’t wait until our new table arrives.

I’ve also been drool­ing over a front loader washer and dryer for MONTHS now (maybe if I love my washer and dryer I’ll love laun­dry more?)  We just ordered these today!

Now, to just get them all deliv­ered and installed…think that could go off with­out a hitch? 

Project 52: Week 6

We haven’t been see­ing much of this stuff this year, now have we?

Here are a few macro shots of the gor­geous giant flakes we had the other morn­ing.  These were on the win­dows of my truck (since I can no longer park in the garage!)

My Funny Valentines

Hope you all have a day filled with love!  Here’s our loves.  We’re so blessed to have them in our lives.

Project 52: Week 5

The pack­ing continues…good thing boxes make fun toys too.   New pics of the house com­ing soon!  We were over there yes­ter­day and I took some of the main level.  Stay tuned!!

In 23 days…

all the pack­ing will have to be done and we’ll no longer be in our awe­some first house that we’ve called home for the last 7 years!  Tonight we signed the papers on an awe­some new house in Rose­mount!  It’s brand new and just our absolute dream house.  I seri­ously could not as for any­thing more. This entire adven­ture has been a whirl­wind over the last 6 weeks, but it’s been a won­der­ful one.

Some­how, we sold our house with­out it ever going on the mar­ket, thanks to our awe­some real­tor, Shirley Lar­son.  If you need a fab­u­lous real­tor, you def­i­nitely want to check her out!  We found out last night that our buyer had sold her house, so we signed the papers on our new one tonight and will be clos­ing on the 26th.  No, not the 26th of March, but the 26th of FEBRUARY!!  As in, 23 days from now!!!!!!!!!  Yeah, that’s me you’re hear­ing freak­ing out about get­ting our house packed up in that amount of time!!

Stay tuned for our crazy mov­ing adven­ture.  It wasn’t so bad the first time around when we moved into our cur­rent house, but with 2 kids, I can guar­an­tee there be some highs and lows along the way.

And now, here are some pic­tures!  The inside pics are of a dif­fer­ent house, but the same model, our floor plan is just flip flopped of these pho­tos, but the out­side ones are of our actual house.  The out­side will be painted come the spring, so the final color will be a light yellow-ish with green accents.  I can’t wait!!

If only this fur­ni­ture came with too!  LOL

This might be my favorite room in the house

Project 52: Week 4

Whew, I almost didn’t get one in this week!  We started doing some pretty hefty pack­ing this week­end.  Hope­fully I can share more details about all of that VERY soon!  It’s GOOD NEWS *we think*.

Here’s week 4, I thought it was very fit­ting and prob­a­bly will be for the next lit­tle while.
