We Have Moved!

Sorry for just now updating...we just got internet installed today!!

So we started moving Saturday! Jessica dog-sat Brinkley at her house, so he won't be in the way, and our friend Chris helped us move the furniture. After several short trips, we showered and watched the World Cup game (so sad). Then we started up again, and our friend Brian help us move a couple other things. Then we ordered pizza, watched a movie, and spent our first night in OUR new home :)

Now 4 days later, and we just finished moving all our crap! The stuff I was very careful to pack and carry gently on Saturday, is now being thrown into the trunk without a second look. I hate moving! But don't we all?! I really like unpacking, which thankfully I can do. We are currently living in the basement because the main level has not been newly painted and furnished. Our old bedroom furniture is the new guestroom furniture, and our old living room furniture is Tim's man cave furniture. I am hoping that we can get everything painted and at least have bedroom furniture before I leave for FL in 2 weeks.

Did you know...this is my first house EVER with stairs? Did you know....that stairs are really obnoxious when you forget something on the other floor? These are little things that I am discovering, along with the word "landing."

Brinkley is adjusting. I think he's kinda bored in the suburbs. He misses our walks passing restaurants of people telling him how cute he is and giving him food. He misses our balcony with all the people splashing in the pool below, our new one looks out to boring trees (which I love). He misses carpeted floors where he can run like a mad dog and not slide into walls. He misses all these things, but he has new loves. He loves chasing squirrels and fireflies, and he can't catch either. He loves running up and down the stairs. He loves our "backyard" are running around (on his leash). He still loves his favorite chair :)

All in all, we are doing well! It is starting to feel like home!
