Finally Home Projects!

We moved! We didn’t even really start packing until the night before the big move. I tried staying organized so it would be easier to unpack but then when it came to the littlest things.. I gave up!

While going down and up to the 3rd floor, I dropped the coffee table on my foot. I was wearing flipflops….brilliant idea, I know. I expected to get an injury anyways since I always get hurt somehow whenever moving. Finally 4-5 hours later, I decided to take the cats with me and go ahead to the house. Both cats were meowing like crazy and Cozy would not calm down unless he was sitting on my lap. I got caught up in traffic so I texted Amy to let her know. They all went a different way and arrived before I did. Here’s a quick video of their arrival.

I have been recently overwhelmed with all these home projects. I should probably type up a list of things we want to do and do it one at a time. I love living 5 miles away from my parents. They have been giving us all the stuff they don’t want anymore. One of the things they gave us was their old outdoor table & chairs. Tyler scrubbed them clean & spray-painted them black.

This is the view we get from our backyard. There are little things I have noticed since living in our new house. My hair’s softer and I think it has to do with the water filter we have installed…even the cats are softer!! The time goes slow and I actually like that because I feel like I have more time at home after work. Last night a nice family down the street drove by in their golf cart and all of them waved at us. Tyler and I are in shock of how nice neighbors can be…because unfortunately we didn’t have nice neighbors at the apartment. We learned from our neighbors that our house has been vacant for 2 years & some college kids bought the house and only lived there for a few months…which explains why it’s still in good condition.

I promise I will get back to regular blogging next week.

I want to see more photos of this beautiful house!!!! All you’ve shown us is the kitchen. Granted it’s beautiful, but I want to see the rest! ;)

I love your table and chairs, BTW.
