Home Sweet Home

Well I can't believe it, the day finally came & we got our keys! This past Thursday we signed all our closing papers, picked up fans & paint, then got our keys. We got a huge chunk of the house painted before we started moving every thing in on Sunday. Monday was our first official night in the new house & we were so dead by the time we final went to sleep!
Things are coming along & we're slowing getting settled in, luckily my mom & sister have been big helps. Barrett has been going to my parents house a lot & it makes me miss that stinker bug so bad! Thank goodness I don't have to leave him every day & it's only for a little bit while I unpack. He's not too keen on helping me unpack, he likes to put everything back in the box once I take it out. To him that's helping I guess :)
I felt like I got a ton of stuff accomplished today & even started some holiday baking this evening. Yum to chocolate chip cookies, my hubster's favorite!
I can't wait to start putting our decorations & pictures up, that might have to wait until after Christmas though. We still have a couple more trips back to the old house to get things & more unpacking too.
I keep telling Ben that maybe in 10yrs the house will be all decorated & the way we want it :) I know some of you know what it's like when you are just starting out & don't have anything. Luckily I have some awesome supportive parents & my dad is a super craftsman on top of it! I can't wait to see what the future holds for us in our new house.

Here are some pictures my sister snapped today. I was able to start putting up the Christmas tree & Barrett just loved it. He really wanted to help by putting his toy animals in it! Barrett also insisting on helping me sweep off the back patio.
