All moved in!

Well...almost. This weekend was EXHAUSTING! Whew! Technically the work started last week while we prepped our apartment for the move, boxing up everything in site and making trips to the house to take over things in advance. We both took Friday off from work to get the move under way. I was extremely proud of our efforts. We had boxed up pretty much everything in the apartment with an exception of a few things in some of the closets and the kitchen (fridge food). The movers (praise the sweet baby J that we went this route)showed up and efficiently had the place cleared out in about an hour :) We then migrated over to the house and they unloaded everything for us.

Once the movers were done Matt and I had a pow wow to prioritize and plan our approach to unpacking and setting up the house (Hello type A!). Prior to the move we had a paint party with all the family to get all the rooms prepped for the big move. So here are some before and after pics of almost all of the house:
First Floor:
The foyer leading into the living room

The living room finished: please excuse the fact that our TV is not on its mount...the screws were not included when we bought it...lame! :P


I'm pretty sure the living room is one of my favorite rooms in the house :)

The dining room before we moved in

If you notice the lamp shade in the picture you'll see evidence that folks walked into it on several occasions over the weekend hence why it had to go!

Just in case you didn't notice there is a theme...cows and pigs :D
Half bath on the first floor...no major changes.

Only two of the four tvs were moutned when this picture was taken...March Maddness in our house is going to be PHENOM!! :)



We still have a little work to do in here in the organization department :)
If you can't tell we worked really hard this weekend getting the first and second floors unboxed and livable. Our goal is to have the basement finished up by March 11th when my folks bring my old bed room set for the basement guest room...hopefully we make it happen! :)
