All moved in

Sorry to disappoint, but no photos this time around.

We're still unpacking and rearranging and decorating and purchasing home stuff, so I'll do a photo update once we're a little further down the road. However I had to post about the move because I felt so grateful for so many friends and family who came out on a snowy Saturday to help us move. We had so much help, including a completely enclosed trailer that fit most of our stuff, that it only took us 2 hours to move just about everything! David and I packed, labeled and stacked all of our stuff in the living room to make it easier and then we had so many friends and family show up to help move it. Erynn had a babysitting service in Coleman's old room for Coleman and all my friend's kids, and we had cardboard boxes all over to carpet to protect it from all the mud and I'd say the move was a huge success.

I'm also EXTREMELY grateful for a husband who is oh soooooo handy and talented. He has fixed, taken apart, cleaned, installed so many things in the last two weeks from taking the oven and fridge doors off to get them through the front door to hanging blinds, installing dishwashers (yes plural, we had a lemon for the first one so he's done it twice now), and hooking up our washer and dryer. I've definitely learned a lot about different tools and small things you can buy at Home Depot like "pigtails". Haha. In addition to all of our craziness, he helped someone else move on Saturday and when he was mowing the lawn at the house we used to rent, I went outside to talk to him and he was mowing our neighbors lawn too even though we had been cleaning for 4 hours because she is recently divorced and he didn't want her to have to come do it alone. He is so giving and so selfless! David is the best, truly has the best heart, out of anyone I've ever known! Such a sweetheart!
