The Move


So moving day has come and gone, and although we are so not picture ready in the house, we took some anyway for all to see. Mind the mess in all the rooms! We are not fully unpacked or set up, so we will post more pictures when we are. Moving was tough, I feel like I haven't stopped for a month between packing, moving, painting, unpacking. Bah, it will be all worth it when it's finished.

Here are the new bird feeders that I bought today, we saw a blue jay already twice, and a few other awesome birds that I have no idea what they are. I saw a chipmunk one morning that lead to Daniel looking out the window every chance he gets looking for the chipmunk too... finally this morning he saw a glimpse of the little guy next door.


Another glimpse of the yard.
Daniel watching me take pictures.
The dining room.
Kitchen.

Here is the living room with our new Samsung that is pretty awesome, we can even hook the ethernet right up to it and gain access to all pictures/music/movies that we have on the PCs.


Another view of our new living room, with Blinky's bed which he loves in the corner. Saves him from sleeping on our throw blanket and getting his hair all over the new leather couches.


The china cabinet and stairs behind it.



The new curtains I put up, twice... bought one rod that was too small and had to take them down, return it and buy another.
Daniel enjoying our new bedroom.

Very dodgy set up in the bedroom, like a fire hazard waiting to happen. SOOO glad I'm married to a cable guy. lol Waiting for him to figure out a way to fix this mess.
The other side of our bedroom.

The bathroom we have yet to use. The guy who owned this house definitely thought he was Mr. Handyman and he was so not... the shower needs to be fully regrouted and sealed up and we needed to scrub the dirt away, it looked like they didn't clean in months. I installed a new shower head and we will get a vanity eventually. We might be able to use it one day if Daniel would just grout and caulk... waiting and waiting.... and waiting.....
Downstairs shitter.
Guest room that as you can see is a junk room right now.
The other side of the guest room.
The "office" as the movers were calling it.


Dan's desk.
The basement, which looks just like our old living room in the old house. The turtles have their home here.
The unfished part of the basement.
The turtles corner!

That's all for now, went to take a picture of the front but there were way too many neighbors out, and while they have all been VERY friendly, I wasn't in the mood to get into a whole "Welcome to the neighborhood" conversation again, lol... so NY'er of me.

More to come when we set up and clean up!

Nice work! Will probably take a few weeks to settling in and put things away. It did for us a few years back - and we had probably 1/2 the stuff we have now.

Are those family guy pj pants? :)
