it's all ours

July 5th started early. Mostly because we were so excited for what the day was going to bring. We started with a celebratory breakfast, then a little walk.
After breakfast, we dropped the kids off with the Herman family (who they love), and Jason and I signed our lives away. Then we picked up the boys, and we got to go take the sign out of the yard of our new home. It's not the first home we've owned, but this one is special. We know that we are going to be here for a long time, our kids are going to grow up living here, and we are going to make so many memories we won't be able to tell them all. We couldn't be more excited.
We did some of the moving after we closed, but had to wait for some extra man power to get it all. That meant one more night in our apartment, and the kids camped out in the living room. 
Jason and I started early the next day, but the boys were total slackers. :)  
No pictures, but we had a long day of moving. Thanks a million times to Erica, Bryan, Trish, and Kyle for the help. It made it so much easier.
And Papa Jay saved the day with a pizza dinner for us. 
We love our new deck and backyard. It's perfect. 
Did I mention the deck and backyard? This is how I love starting my days. 
Then unpacking began. 
First up was the kitchen. Done. 
The next morning I had a visitor with my coffee. 
And we got furniture delivered for our new sitting room. No tv, just sitting. 
My favorite room in the whole house. 
Love the couches we found, but love that we got a smoking deal, even more. 
We are more settled now and have even done a few projects. More on that later. We are so happy in our home, and it's been home since the day we saw it. It's the perfect house for us.
