The new house

As you can probably imagine, we've been crazy busy over the last week as we move into the new house.

Our stuff was unloaded into the house Tuesday and Wednesday, meaning the house was stuffed with boxes, which were stuffed with our stuff and packing paper. Somewhere a forest is thinner thanks to all the cardboard used to pack our belongings.

So we've been unpacking boxes, setting up bedrooms, stocking cupboards, and painting rooms.


Our first night in the house we actually had a sit down meal at home for the first time since early July (of course, we were sitting on the back patio with our patio table, four dining room chairs, two patio chairs, and one office chair -- because that's what we had). Many thanks to a few of our new neighbors from the ward who brought dinner over. What a treat (and what a great meal).




We did take a few photos to show some of the outside and inside of the house, our family, and the gorgeous sunset that welcomed us home (as shot from our upstairs bedroom). Fortunately we got photos that day, because it's rained every day since (thank goodness we set up the TV and DVD player, and our long-neglected Ping Pong table).
