Time to finally breathe...

So, we've been in the house for over a month now, and it's been great. Most everything is unpacked and has a place ... but nothing has been hung on the walls yet. Our color schemes have changed, so we may need to rethink what we have/what we need. We still need to install the ceiling fan in the kitchen and get the mantel/tile installed. We've been to IKEA and gotten some ideas for some pieces of furniture we're wanting. It's all the fun stuff now. Finally!

So ... photo time?

Jason painting KILLZ on the big cat pee stain on the concrete so Stella didn't think that was her new place to go.

Chris painting baseboards - he did practically every door frame, baseboard, and shelf in the house. Which was a HUGE thing for me. I couldn't seem to get the hang of it, and he did AWESOME!

Kylee painting some doors. That was the quickest process EVER.

Jason carrying the boxes I brought home from work up to our 3rd floor apartment. Gotta love those long arms! Ha!

Painting the walls in the pantry green. So pretty. And Jason's idea, might I add. :)

Mom helping out with the cutting in... I was too tall.

Our BEAUTIFUL blooming Bradford Pear tree.

Dad pulled weeds for 4 hours ... and we had so many that you couldn't even tell where he had gone over. So that's when we decided we needed professional help. The first step is admitting you have a problem...

APPLIANCES!!!

Finished pantry. So pretty.

The whole family helping out. This was so fun to open - it was like Christmas. :)

The boys reading the instructions ... momentous.

Everyone helping out ... okay, this was posed, but they kept working too fast for me to snap pictures of the process!

Setting the time on the microwave.

Appliances!!!  :)

Okay, so that's as far as my pictures go that are uploaded on the computer. But it gives you an idea of what all happened at the house right before we moved.
