Thank you so much to all those that helped this weekend with the move. Despite all the practice, we still couldn't have done it ourselves.

We got everything moved and are settling in to our new home. Brady left town again on Tuesday, just hours after we brought the last load from the old house. He is gone a week this time, but will be home for Thanksgiving. The kids and I have made a "to do" list of all the things we need to get done to really settle in. Each night we are going to pick a few that need to be done the next day and work together to get the projects accomplished. Today was unload Daddy's truck and unpack the kitchen. Tomorrow we are going to organize the garage.

I like the new house. It's different from our other houses, but it is going to be a good home for us for a few years. There are definitely some projects... wall paper to remove, walls to paint... but we have time. Grandma Oborn will be here soon and we will be able to keep her plenty busy with decorating projects.

  2. Amanda-You are so lucky to have a new "canvas" to work with:) Tell details about colors, textures, themes for rooms, and when your mom will be in town! Maybe I can visit...
